Etymologically, the word 'Caesar' originates from the Latin word 'Caedaere' meaning - 'to cut'. So cutting remains the core point, but little is known about the real origin of the history of Caesarean Section. There is evidence that, the ancient Hindus excelled in surgery and many operations were performed, including caesarean section. This operation was mentioned several times in the Mishnah of Rabbi Judah, the first large commentary on the Hebrew Bible. There are also several mythological anecdotes in Hindu, Buddhist and Greek mythologies. The myth of caesarean section did not even escape the keen eyes of William Skakespeare. The landmarks, treatises and the advancement in this operative procedure are presented in this article.
从词源学上讲，“Caesar”这个词源自拉丁语“Caedaere”，意思是“切割”。所以切割仍然是核心要点，但关于剖宫产术历史的真正起源却知之甚少。有证据表明，古代印度人在外科手术方面很出色，进行了许多手术，包括剖宫产术。在对希伯来圣经的第一部大型评注《拉比·犹大密西拿》中多次提到了这个手术。在印度教、佛教和希腊神话中也有几则神话轶事。剖宫产术的神话甚至没有逃过威廉·莎士比亚敏锐的眼睛。本文介绍了这一手术过程中的里程碑、论文以及进展情况。
