Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the history of hernia, a medical condition that leads to organs protruding through the body wall. The author focuses on the development of surgical techniques for repairing hernias, beginning with the earliest descriptions of hernia repair in ancient Egypt and Greece. The book then traces the development of surgical techniques through the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, when barbers and surgeons began to perform hernia repairs, often with disastrous results. The author describes the contributions of key figures in the history of hernia repair, including Celsus, Albucasis, and Ambroise Pare, and discusses the impact of the development of anesthesia and antiseptics on the success rate of hernia repair. The book concludes with a discussion of the latest techniques for hernia repair, including laparoscopic and robotic surgery.
