One of the earliest written references to prosthetics is found in a book published in France in 1579. That year, French surgeon Ambroise Paré (1510-1590) published his complete works, part of which described some of the artificial limbs he fitted on his amputees. As a military surgeon, Paré had removed many a soldier's shattered arm or leg, and he eventually began designing and building artificial limbs to help the men who had been maimed.
最早提到假肢的文献之一是 1579 年在法国出版的一本书中找到的。那一年,法国外科医生安布鲁瓦兹·帕雷(Ambroise Paré,1510-1590 年)出版了他的全部著作,其中一部分描述了他为截肢者安装的一些假肢。作为一名军医,帕雷曾多次切除士兵破碎的手臂或腿部,最终他开始设计和制造假肢,以帮助那些残疾的士兵。
