Was there craniotomy in ancient China?

5000 years ago there is don't underestimate our ancestors It is documented that in France and South America Peru unearthed about 4,600 years ago on the cranium was found to have a craniotomy left after the bone window traces, archaeologists analyze that the instruments used at that time may be sharp stone tools. China's historical records of surgery is the Three Kingdoms period of the miraculous doctor Hua Tuo, he invented the Ma Bo San, proposed for Cao Cao to open the skull to cure the disease, although in the end, Cao Cao did not agree, but it shows that at that time Hua Tuo has mastered the technology of craniotomy to treat cranial diseases. The cranium on display is not only the earliest in China, but also should be the earliest example of craniotomy found in the world.　In addition to the technical level of the doctor, craniotomy requires at least two conditions, one is the surgical instruments, and the other is the perfect means of hemostasis. 5,000 years ago, our country was in the era of alternating neolithic and bronze, especially the emergence of copper smelting, which provided the necessary conditions for the development of our country's surgical such as the surgical instruments.　　According to the analysis of the bone window on the skull, the owner of the tomb should be a blunt force trauma caused by extensive, comminuted fracture of the skull and open craniocerebral injury. And the surgical instruments used by this highly skillful neurosurgical pioneer should not be stone tools, but probably bronze tools. After removing the hematoma and broken bone fragments, he repaired the crushed fracture fragments in the broken area of the skull into a round bone window, thus leaving a "classic work" of craniotomy surgery 5,000 years ago for future generations.　　Due to the frequent wars and the highly developed civilization in the Yellow River Basin, especially the arrival of the Bronze Age, it prompted the rapid development of surgery in China. At that time, Chinese surgery was supposed to be the most advanced in the world. In the past 500 years, the rapid development of science and technology in the West has driven the rapid development of modern medicine, while China has lagged behind the developed Western countries. This reveals that the development of advanced surgery, in addition to the doctor's sense of creativity, advanced science and technology and medical equipment in the clinical application also has an important role to play, such as the Nobel Prize-winning CT, MRI in the clinical application of neurosurgery and other surgical fields greatly promote the rapid development of is proof.
