Origin Practiced in some form since antiquity; the Edwin Smith Papyrus (c. 1600 BCE Egypt) is among the oldest surviving surgical texts, and the field was transformed into its modern form in the nineteenth century by anesthesia and antisepsis.

Surgery is the branch of medicine that treats disease, injury or deformity by operative manual and instrumental intervention on the body. Its recorded history reaches back to antiquity, from trepanation and Egyptian wound treatises through the anatomical and antiseptic reforms of the nineteenth century that made complex internal operations survivable for the first time. This atlas records what the historical record supports about the fields development and is not medical advice.
