PLASTIC AND COSMETIC SURGERY

CHAPTER I
HISTORICAL

It seems almost incredible that at this late day so little is generally known to the surgical profession of the beautiful and practical, not to say grateful, art of plastic or restorative surgery, successfully practiced even by the ancients.

The progress of the art has been much interrupted. It is only the later methods of antisepsis, which have so greatly added to general surgery, that have placed it firmly upon the basis of a distinct and separate art in surgical science.

To Aulus Cornelius Celsus, a Latin physician and philosopher, supposed to have lived in the time of Augustus, we owe the first authentic principles of the science. He was a most prolific writer and an urgent worker. After having introduced the Hippocratic system to the Romans he became known as the Roman Hippocrates. His best-known work handed down to us is the “De Medicina,” the first edition of which, divided into eight books, appeared in Florence in 1478. The seventh and eighth volumes, designated the “Surgical Bible,” contain much valuable data in reference to opinions and observations of the Alexandrian School of Medicine.
