One of the coolest things about the history of medicine is how it shows that even with less knowledge, some of the civilisations that came before us were remarkably close in terms of how they understood the way the body worked - for example, while the liver can't grow back from nothing, some argue that the legend of Prometheus regrowing his liver every day after an eagle ate it as part of his punishment for giving fire to humans demonstrates that the Greeks understood how the liver was able to recover from physical damage.

Ever since Geometry Dash 2.2 I've been getting lobotomy videos recommended to me nonstop

А где в коментах шутки про лоботомию ?..

I have third degree burns over 25 percent of my body.
At the hospital they actually attached my hand to my upper leg and left it for two months so the skin of my leg could be transplanted on my hand, replacing heavily burned tissue.
Even though I have small nerve issues, the operation was succesful.

The fact that this shows how bad medical care was back then I am now grateful for us in the 2000, s

For spooky month, can you do a episode on blood? Blood types and what makes them different and other blood facts?

[larvalextract]

Awesomely entertaining and informative video as always 👍

As someone who's had kidney stones before, I can see why ancient people would undergo something with a 50% mortality rate

My mom had hemochromatosis! She was one of the most frequent blood donors at our local donation center. If she skipped a donation her joints became extremely sore.

You have got to react to House, specifically the episode where this dude swallows. Toothpick. Over 10 years later and it’s the one that I still remember along with the Tick episode, man talk about wild.

I almost got trepanned recently. I was assaulted in a hate crime for what I can only imagine was for dressing androgynous and had a subdural hematoma, subarachnoid hemorrhage, post traumatic hygroma on the frontal lobe, hemorrhagic contusions on the right temporal lobe, and a bunch of other complications. I almost immediately started to have seizures and was put on keppra and after a consult with a surgeon we decided not to drill any burrholes but try to manage the symptoms and wait it out. 6 months later I'm still here but my cognition is pretty crap compared to before, got an appointment in a couple days to check and see if any more atrophy has occured and stuff but I can totally see why this procedure was necessary and continues to be. Thank you medical personnel I'd be a goner if it wasn't for you

[itssteph]

I wonder what current medical procedures will be considered as unethical or horrific later on

[tomascostanzo]

When I suffered a hemorrhagic stroke, doctors left my skull open for months before sealing it with a plastic cap that is literally stapled to the rest of the bone. So trefinations are still being used at a 100%.

No.3 reminds me of the scene in Star Trek IV (The one with the whales) where Doctor McCoy chastises the 1986 surgeon over drilling holes in Chekov's head after falling from the deck of the USS Enterprise (CVN-65, rather than NCC-1701!) onto the dock below, referring to his tools as "Butcher knives", given McCoy's more advanced medical knowledge of almost 300 years ahead, it's kind of like how this video's looking back on procedures we consider barbaric today...
