Early Egyptians learned about the function of the organs and the nature of the heart, lungs, stomach, liver, and pancreas. This precise knowledge enabled them to know the part that enables them to open the human body and reach the inner organs and mummify them without damaging them. A small hole not more than a few centimeters in the left side of the abdomen, and during the process of mummification, linking the body parts of each other, which gave them the ability to perform operations found in some mummies.
Some 4500 years ago, the Egyptian doctor was able to perform amputations of the legs and hands infected and knew ways to stop bleeding and treatment of veins and arteries. In addition, researchers at Brigham Young University in the United States during the study of one of the mummies have traces of surgery used nails in the treatment of fractures , And traces of organic gum used to bind bone, much like bone cement, are currently being used for the same purpose.
It is likely that the owner of the mummy died between the 16th and 11th centuries BC The most striking thing was that he was unable to reach the nail that connects the bones without having to puncture the bones and using the telescope camera for a closer look at it, The methods used by the ancient Egyptians to treat the fractures are presented, and although they have reached what has been done, the team has not yet reached the way in which such an operation was carried out.
