Sammanfattning:This laymen type of scientific history writing summarized the creation and development of Monro⁃Kellie doctrine and its potential role in intracranial hypertension. A Scottish scholar Monro created the concept of "intracranial pressure (ICP)" and his student Kellie supplemented Monro's concept, suggesting both cranial content and blood contributed to the ICP. Another Scottish scholar Abercrombie also studied ICP and in 1828 first used the term "Monro⁃Kellie doctrine".
