After education at Carlisle Grammar School, Harold Sheehan studied medicine at the University of Manchester, graduating MB ChB in 1921. Harold Sheehan began his practice of medicine by joining his elder brother Gerald, who had taken over their father's practice upon the latter's death. Harold Sheehan worked as a general practitioner from 1921 to 1927.[3] He became in 1927 a demonstrator, and later a lecturer, in the University of Manchester's department of pathology.[3] There the professor of pathology was John Shaw Dunn,[5] who supervised Sheehan's MD thesis (1931) on the deposition of dyes in the mammalian kidney. In 1932 Sheehan graduated MSc with a thesis on renal elimination of injected urea and creatine. By means of a Rockefeller medical fellowship for the academic year 1934–1935, he studied renal function at the Johns Hopkins Medical School's department of pathology.[3] In 1935 he was appointed director of research at the Glasgow Royal Maternity Hospital and lecturer on pathology.[4] In the years preceding WWII he became an internationally recognized expert on diseases of pregnancy.[3] {{blockquote|He analysed the effects of obstetrical shock, he differentiated between the fatty liver of delayed chloroform poisoning and the condition of primary fatty liver of pregnancy, he demonstrated the reactivation of latent rheumatic heart disease that was induced by pregnancy, he clarified the effects of eclampsia upon the liver and kidneys, he identified the encephalopathy of hyperemesis gravidarum as Wernicke’s disease, he recognized the association between concealed accidental haemorrhage and renal cortical necrosis and recognized that obstetrical shock and haemorrhage could induce necrosis of the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland.[3]}}He joined the Territorial Army in 1939 and became deputy director of pathology at the allied forces' headquarters in Italy.[4] He was mentioned in dispatches and attained the rank of colonel in the RAMC.[3] {{blockquote|... he helped to show that the sporadic jaundice seen in soldiers treated with intravenous arsenicals was caused by dirty syringes and needles infected with what we now know as hepatitis B virus.[4]}}He gained a DSc in 1940 and qualified MRCP in 1941. He was appointed in 1946 to the University of Liverpool's chair of pathology and built up a prestigious department. He acted as a histopathological consultant for the region surrounding Merseyside and monitored obstetrical deaths in the region, promptly performing many autopsies himself.[3] In 1949, with Victor Kirwan Summers[6] he published an important paper on the syndrome of hypopituitarism.[3] {{blockquote|The paper showed convincingly that emaciation and premature senility, previously considered to be essential for the diagnosis of pituitary insufficiency, were not features of the syndrome. This paper, rather than Sheehan’s earlier papers on pituitary necrosis, led to the syndrome of post-partum pituitary necrosis becoming known as Sheehan’s syndrome.[3]}}Sheehan was the president of the section of endocrinology at the October 1960 meeting of the Royal Society of Medicine and gave an address Atypical Hypopituitarism.[7] He retired from the chair of pathology in 1965. From 1965 to 1980 in a room set aside for him at the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine he studied his case notes and thousands of histopathological specimens accumulated over many years.[4] He was elected FRCP in 1947, FRCOG in 1949, and FRCPath in 1964. He went on a number of international lecture tours, always accompanied by his wife, who spoke several languages.[3] He was elected a foreign correspondent of the Académie Nationale de Médecine.[4] In 1934 in Kensington, London, he married Eve Suzette Gertrude Potter (1905–1986). They had no children. Both of them were buried at Allerton Cemetery. Selected publicationsArticles
