Modern surgery owes its development to the innovations and skill of those craftsmen in the early 19th Century. Joseph-Frédéric-Benoît Charrière was a Parisian Cutler of renowned fame. He pioneered many developments in ether administration, urologic and other general surgical instrumentation. He also made profound modifications to the syringe, haemostat and aneurysm clip. Charrière, most importantly, developed the French (Fr) or Charrière (Ch) gauge system used in sizing catheters and endoscopic equipment (1 Charr. = 0.333 mm). His contributions were widespread and are still evident today.
现代外科手术的发展得益于19世纪初那些工匠的创新和技艺。约瑟夫 - 弗雷德里克 - 贝努瓦·沙里耶是一位声名远扬的巴黎刀具匠。他在乙醚给药、泌尿外科及其他普通外科器械方面开创了许多进展。他还对注射器、止血器和动脉瘤夹进行了重大改进。最重要的是，沙里耶开发了用于确定导管和内窥镜设备尺寸的法国（Fr）或沙里耶（Ch）规格系统（1 Charr. = 0.333毫米）。他的贡献广泛，至今仍很明显。
