The Siberian Lancet: One More Possible Innovative Example of Scalpel's Contribution to the Evolution of Surgical Anatomy and Neurosurgery

Several primitive scalpels were used since the eve of surgical procedures. Numerous bronze knifes discovered in the Altai mountains region from the Xiongnu-Xianbei-Rouran period mold a hypotheses for a possible medical use. On-sight archaeologic excavation brought into light the tools in question. K...

description Several primitive scalpels were used since the eve of surgical procedures. Numerous bronze knifes discovered in the Altai mountains region from the Xiongnu-Xianbei-Rouran period mold a hypotheses for a possible medical use. On-sight archaeologic excavation brought into light the tools in question. Knifes, similar to modern lancets, were unearthed alongside with a series of skulls demonstrating signs of trepanation. Strong indications imply that those cutting tools, except for domestic usage, were one more example of scalpel's contribution to the evolution of surgical anatomy and neurosurgery.
