Résumé

Many surgical instruments are named after their inventors, acclaimed surgeons of the past, because of their discoveries and their contributions in the field of surgical techniques. However, these daily reminders of history of surgery are often forgotten by the modern practitioners. We propose to review, through a selection of instruments, short biographies of these precursors. This third original article will focus on the inventors of modern scissors: Mayo, Metzenbaum, Stevens and Lister. (C) 2020 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.
