EDITORS COMMENTS
This copperplate engraving, created by Wilson Lowry for Abraham Rees' Cyclopedia or Universal Dictionary published in London in 1803, offers a fascinating glimpse into the surgical practices of the 19th century. The intricately detailed image showcases an array of surgical instruments, including amputating and metacarpal saws, various types of knives such as the catling and bistoury, a scalpel, needle, tenaculum, bone nippers, and forceps. The amputating saw, with its large, serrated blade, was used for major amputations, while the smaller metacarpal saw was designed for removing bones in the hand. The knives, such as the catling and bistoury, served diverse purposes, from making incisions to dissecting tissue. The scalpel, a versatile instrument, was essential for making precise cuts during surgeries. The needle, a seemingly simple tool, was used for suturing wounds, while the tenaculum and bone nippers were employed for holding and manipulating tissue and bone during complex procedures. This historical representation of surgical equipment is a testament to the advancements in medical technology during the 19th century. It is a poignant reminder of the dedication and skill required of surgeons during this era, as they worked to save lives and alleviate suffering with the tools at their disposal. The intricate details of this copperplate engraving serve to highlight the precision and craftsmanship involved in both the creation of the image and the execution of surgical procedures during this time.
