Famous Names in Surgery and Orthopaedics Volume II

Since 1800, more progress has been made than in the preceding 3,000 years. This is largely attributed to work conducted in the dissecting room and laboratory. Key milestones in the 19th-century surgical history include the discovery of anesthesia, antiseptic surgery based on bacteriology, and changes in medical education methods. The Anatomy Act of 1832 in Great Britain removed restrictions on procuring human bodies for dissection. The significant strides in morbid anatomy, pathological anatomy, and experimental pathology have all strongly influenced the advancement of modern surgery.
