Surgery is a very clean and consistent part of medicine in the 21st century. During the time that Phineas Gage lived in, we learned that doctors and scientists were just learning about bacteria. They also were just learning about anesthesia, proper surgical conditions, and how to prevent infections like the one Phineas had. Let's take a look at some information about surgery in the 18th century.
