This print showcases a selection of Surgical Trocars, dating back to 1798. The engraving from Savigny's Instruments is a testament to the rich history of surgical instruments. The image captures the intricate details of these trocars, which were essential tools used in various medical procedures. With their sharp tips and slender design, they allowed surgeons to puncture body cavities with precision and minimal damage. Displayed in a medium-sized box labeled "H Med Inst" these trocars are arranged neatly, highlighting their variation in size and shape. Each trocar bears a unique number engraved on its surface, adding an element of mystery to this collection.

It serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of medical advancements. This photograph is not just about objects; it represents the ingenuity and innovation that has shaped modern medicine. It invites us to appreciate the craftsmanship behind these instruments while acknowledging the progress made since their creation.
