Title A name given to the resource Animation on First Brain Tumour Removal Description An account of the resource In 1879, Barbara Watson came under the care of William Macewen, presenting with a large tumour over the left eye. Macewen tended to Miss Watson with his well-known skill and compassion, but little did he know that this case would become a world first in neurosurgery. At this time, there were no methods of imaging the body non-invasively- Rontgen did not discover X-rays until 1895. Therefore, determining the dimensions of brain lesions relied on the practitioner's observations of the patient's symptoms alone. This would have required an in-depth knowledge of the anatomy and physiology of the brain. Thankfully, Macewen was well-read on the current theories on the brain at that time. Miss Watson truly could not have asked for a better surgeon to help her. Due to Miss Watson's frequent convulsions, Macewen suspected that the tumour above the left eye was in fact passing through the skull into the brain. Hence, he decided to cut into the mass and follow its trajectory. Upon investigation, it was discovered that the tumour did indeed pass through the skull and was putting pressure on the dura mater. Macewen successfully removed the tumour, under antiseptic conditions, and closed the wound. Miss Watson survived the operation and died some years later from kidney problems completely unrelated to this case. This case became the first successful removal of a brain tumour in the world. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/pjSV_gsXME0" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen=""></iframe> Relation A related resource <a href="https://heritage.rcpsg.ac.uk/items/show/468" target="_blank">Portrait of William Macewen</a> <div><a href="https://heritage.rcpsg.ac.uk/items/show/108" target="_blank">Macewen Operating Table</a></div> Animation Barbara Watson Neurosurgery Visualization William Macewen https://heritage.rcpsg.ac.uk/files/original/fc7199c86e3520192326406f7df9b3bc.png 9822c7ba2fb7f082d34fb43cac531b97 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Animation on Lister's Carbolic Spray Description An account of the resource In 1867, Joseph Lister published his ground-breaking article “Antiseptic Principle of the Practice of Surgery” in the medical journal, The Lancet. This article presented Lister's initial cases where he used what would become his principle of antisepsis. It was in the Glasgow Royal Infirmary that Lister first started using carbolic as an antiseptic, heralding the beginnings of a surgical revolution. The carbolic spray, however, was mainly employed during Lister's time as a surgeon in Edinburgh. As well as sterilising wounds, Lister aimed to sterilise the surgical environment. Hence, an operator would pump carbolic spray around the operating theatre to eradicate any germs. Unfortunately, this had detrimental effects on practitioners since they were inhaling highly concentrated carbolic acid. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/7WLyGmb4IyQ" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen=""></iframe> Relation A related resource <div><a href="https://heritage.rcpsg.ac.uk/items/show/226" target="_blank">Portrait of Joseph Lister</a></div> <div><a href="https://heritage.rcpsg.ac.uk/items/show/34" target="_blank">Lister Carbolic Spray</a></div> <div><a href="https://heritage.rcpsg.ac.uk/items/show/211" target="_blank">Ward in the Lister Block</a></div> Animation Antisepsis Joseph Lister Visualization https://heritage.rcpsg.ac.uk/files/original/65ab38689d2a450c8e16dcd84ffac978.jpg 8ebe618007be712b220d4aa52bd10b7c Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Animation on Lung Penetration Case Description An account of the resource During his time as a police surgeon in Glasgow, William Macewen attended to several cases in the city centre. He collected any mentions of the cases from newspapers and put them together in a clippings book, which is held within the College's archive collection. On 11th October, 1873, a young man had been stabbed in the back during an altercation. He had complaints of feeling breathless, as if something was tugging on his throat. When Macewen examined the wound, he found that the probe extended all the way into the pleural lining of the lungs. At this point he came into contact with a shard of the knife that had been used to stab the young man. He successfully removed the knife segment and the patient survived. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/PiRiFlSiIpQ" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen=""></iframe> Relation A related resource <a href="https://heritage.rcpsg.ac.uk/items/show/468" target="_blank">Portrait of William Macewen</a> Animation Emergency Medicine Surgery Visualization William Macewen https://heritage.rcpsg.ac.uk/files/original/692358ed1265009b8456af3a276125b3.jpg b1859bf0f0a28be4a954923ef9a0d2f1 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Laennec Monaural Stethoscope Description An account of the resource Laennec stethoscope, wood, early 19th century. Early monaural stethoscope as devised by Dr Rene Laennec, early 19th century. The Breton doctor, Rene Laennec of Quimper (1781-1826) first invented the stethoscope in 1816. Confronted by a stout woman with an apparent heart condition, Laennec found that he was unable to use hand or ear to examine the patient without embarrassment, so he used a tightly rolled sheaf of papers, one end of which he placed against the precordial region and the other to his ear. He was able thereby to hear the heart with greater clarity than he had ever done before. Laennec developed a stethoscope which consisted of a simple wooden cylinder that could be unscrewed in the middle for carrying in the pocket. <div class="sketchfab-embed-wrapper"><iframe width="640" height="480" src="https://sketchfab.com/models/b26dd74697364a6d8309253dd27f2948/embed?autospin=0.2" frameborder="0" allow="autoplay; fullscreen; vr" mozallowfullscreen="true" webkitallowfullscreen="true"></iframe> <p style="font-size: 13px; font-weight: normal; margin: 5px; color: #4a4a4a;"><a href="https://sketchfab.com/models/b26dd74697364a6d8309253dd27f2948?utm_medium=embed&amp;utm_source=website&amp;utm_campaign=share-popup" target="_blank" style="font-weight: bold; color: #1caad9;">Laennec Stethoscope</a> by <a href="https://sketchfab.com/rcpsgheritage?utm_medium=embed&amp;utm_source=website&amp;utm_campaign=share-popup" target="_blank" style="font-weight: bold; color: #1caad9;">RCPSG Heritage</a> on <a href="https://sketchfab.com?utm_medium=embed&amp;utm_source=website&amp;utm_campaign=share-popup" target="_blank" style="font-weight: bold; color: #1caad9;">Sketchfab</a></p> </div> <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/1icmLlmHpDw" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen=""></iframe> Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Rene Laennec Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource c. 1800s Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context 2003/50 Animation Diagnostics General Practice Instrument Visualization https://heritage.rcpsg.ac.uk/files/original/c32a7035009394b04e6be2d2c2c502ae.png 5e9b95ae31517e87afb62d227fe27183 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Arthur Henry Jacobs studied medicine at St Mungo's College in Glasgow and gained his Triple Qualification in 1920. He spent some further time training in London, Paris, and Vienna. Widely considered the "father of urology" in Glasgow, he was appointed as a urologist at the Glasgow Royal Infirmary in 1930. He then became chief of the urology department by 1936. This department became a model for several other urology departments across the country. He was considered to be one of the best urologists in the world, with major contributions in the classification and surgical management of genitourinary tuberculosis. Jacobs was President of the College from 1958 to 1960. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Ghc1NVo88Xo" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe> Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource <a href="https://heritage.rcpsg.ac.uk/items/show/1238">Stone; Geoffrey (1931-2005); Artist</a> Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context 80 Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 1991 Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource © the artist's estate Animation Arthur Jacobs College President Glasgow Royal Infirmary Urology Visualization https://heritage.rcpsg.ac.uk/files/original/93bb4666ddb8802513a723258606a971.jpg d597d88dac5bc36ed437b2e3dbb0822e https://heritage.rcpsg.ac.uk/files/original/02dde87cb2b925deafbaf448bc7440e1.jpg 6737b6126504db59e214c8e033f74d90 https://heritage.rcpsg.ac.uk/files/original/557ed388f26f389784d92f93236394dd.jpg 705289bf22bbca0e99d75c5b5bd8a991 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Semi-flexible Gastroscope Description An account of the resource Gastroscope, metal and rubber, in wooden case, c 1960s. Gastroscopy today involves examining components of the gastrointestinal system by inserting a wire-like endoscope down the patient’s throat. The endoscope contains a camera and light, and is controlled by the physician performing the examination. The images from the camera are then fed to a monitor screen for visualization. Rudolf Schindler was the brains behind the first ever semi-flexible gastroscope, created in 1931. He constructed the gastroscope in such a manner that the distal end could be rotated, while the proximal end remained stationary. This allowed easier access to all areas of the stomach. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/ZYI99UdxUpE" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen=""></iframe> Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource c. 1960s Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context 2000/10.2 Animation Diagnostics Endoscopy Gastroenterology Instrument https://heritage.rcpsg.ac.uk/files/original/e7426d746cc21e679c42b1b48444f165.png f938a68f48c8a450f2cc3eef24a8c925 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Each of the cases occurred during his time working at the Glasgow Royal Infirmary. His first case was a young boy by the name of James Greenlees, who had an open fracture of his leg. Lister set the fracture and dressed the wound in carbolic acid to prevent infection. James made a full recovery. This was the birth of antisepsis.

Title A name given to the resource Tooth Extraction with Dental Key Description An account of the resource Before the invention of the dental forceps in the 19th century, teeth were extracted using a variety of dental instruments. One such instrument was the "dental key", named as such due to its mechanism of use. If a tooth was to be extracted, the dentist, (or barber surgeon), would take the tooth key and place the claw around the affected tooth. They would then turn the key as if trying to open a lock and extract the tooth. This technique was not particularly successful and would often lead to the crown of the tooth being cracked off, leaving the root still embedded in the jaw. Thankfully, the regular use of the tooth key was phased out in the 19th century due to the introduction of the dental forceps. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/e1Z540LAalw?rel=0" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen=""></iframe> Relation A related resource <a href="https://heritage.rcpsg.ac.uk/items/show/735" target="_blank">Dental Forceps</a> <div><a href="https://heritage.rcpsg.ac.uk/items/show/534" target="_blank">Tooth Key</a></div> Animation Dentistry Visualization https://heritage.rcpsg.ac.uk/files/original/ebb5f45eaf24ccf7bb53f10640c9863f.jpg 20071e634c03362705a58edfde4504d5 https://heritage.rcpsg.ac.uk/files/original/0b823bfb61cfe5482ef6ea1d0345e573.jpg 94cd5b9188d107afae62d0e824928905 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Although the narrative itself is fictional, the animation was inspired by the vaccination registers held within the College's archives and the information that they convey. The story was written by Dr Kristin Hay, a historian of sex, gender, medicine and oral history, and Tutor of Economic and Social History at the University of Glasgow. The animation was produced and edited by Kirsty Earley, the Digital Heritage and Engagement Officer of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Glasgow.
