Transjugal-transoval route of Hartel was first described by Hartel in [[1912]], for alcohol injection at the level of the [[Gasserian ganglion]] to treat [[trigeminal neuralgia]]. Then this route was extensively used with the same indication for performing percutaneous destructive [[procedure]]s of the trigeminal system, by thermocoagulation, balloon compression or glycerol injection.

[[Cushing]]'s name is commonly associated with his most famous discovery, [[Cushing's disease]].

He published his findings in [[1932]] as "The Basophil Adenomas of the Pituitary Body and Their Clinical Manifestations: pituitary Basophilism".
