Surgery videos from 1930′s (WiredScience)

Posted on | October 2, 2009 | No Comments

Wired Science pulled out some awesome black-and-white surgery videos from the 1930s from the annals of British Medical Association. Warning: They are pretty gruesome but show how complex surgeries were done back in the day with somewhat primitive tools and no computers. I highly recommend it just because it’s pretty fascinating.
