This article reviews the major devices, individuals, and other historical landmarks in the development of suction in the field of neurosurgery, where the operating fields are characteristically deep and narrow. Our review spans the 159 years since the first use of aspiration in surgery to modern applications. This report exemplifies a comprehensive history of suction, the minute iteration of devices, and the massive impact this technological development has had on medicine and neurosurgery.
