EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 11 and 12: A Peek into 18th Century Bladder Stone Surgery - Surgical Chairs and Instruments These captivating plates, taken from Denis Diderot's Encyclopedia, offer a unique glimpse into the world of 18th century bladder stone surgery. Plate 11 showcases an array of surgical instruments used during the procedure, meticulously engraved by Robert Benard. The instruments include dilators 1-3, a curette (number 6), and a hook curette (number 7). The dilators were used to gradually widen the urethra to facilitate the removal of the bladder stone. The curettes were employed to scrape the stones from the bladder and urethra, while the hook curette was used to extract smaller fragments. Plate 12 illustrates the surgical chairs used during the operation. The patients, both adults and children, were held in place during the procedure through the groin. This position allowed the surgeon to access the bladder through the urethra. The chairs were designed to provide stability and comfort to the patients during the often painful and lengthy procedure. The meticulous detail in these plates, produced in the late 18th century, underscores the importance of anatomical illustrations in the development of medical knowledge during this period. The use of copperplate engraving allowed for precise and accurate depictions of the surgical instruments and procedures, contributing significantly to the advancement of medical understanding and practice.
