Abstract:

Significant percentage of today’s knowledge of ancient Egyptian medicine has been acquired from papyri left behind from various periods of Egyptian history. The longest and the most comprehensive is the Ebers papyrus, kept in the University Museum of Leipzig, which was written more than-one thousand years before Hippocrates (c. 460–377 BC). One of the riddles among the prescriptions of the Ebers papyrus Eb20 has been used in order to remove the so called “wemyt” weremit from the abdomen with the help of a drink, which consists of “jnnk”, Conyza dioscoridis in milk or sweet beer.

Abstract:

Medicine in ancient Egypt was trying to restrain all malefic beings from the action and to preserve the well-being of the individual. Thus the initial statement that magic and science were one and only, a sole concept. Papyrus Edwin Smith mentioned diseases and surgery cases, 62 in total, fourteen with known treatments, and 48 without mentioning any treatment, maybe chronical diseases difficult to treat or even unknown diseases. At the same time as Papyrus Edwin Smith was bought in 1872 by Egyptologist George Ebers who gave it his name. It contains 877 medical treatises covering physical, ment

Abstract:

The Edwin Smith surgical papyrus, which dates back nearly five millennia, is the oldest known medical text and contains the first written example of the word “brain”, as well as the earliest known descriptions of the meninges and the cerebrospinal fluid. The papyrus describes 48 cases and gives the first accounts of several forms of brain injury and their associated complications. The Egyptian author presents an analytical approach to the reported cases and classifies them as favourable, uncertain or intractable, depending on prognosis. The authors believe that case 20 of the papyrus presents

Abstract:

The Edwin Smith papyrus is the oldest known surgical treatise, thought to have been written in 1700 B.C. It was first discovered in Luxor in 1862 and was first translated from hieroglyph script by Egyptologist, James Henry Breasted in 1930. The papyrus details forty eight traumatic injuries which are topographically organised and considered formulaically through examination, diagnosis, prognosis and treatment.The Khopesh was an ancient Egyptian sickle shaped sword which was thought to have been used to inflict a slash-type sharp force injury during battle.

Abstract:

✓A new textual analysis of the central religious aspect of the ancient Egyptian creation myth reveals what appears to be a description of the oldest recorded neurosurgical operation, occurring circa 3000 BC. The analysis results in a hypothesis suggesting that traction reduction was used successfully to reverse a paralyzing cervical spine injury of an early Egyptian leader (Osiris), which inspired the story of his resurrection. The Egyptian mother god Isis, working with the god Thoth (the inventor of medicine), resurrects Osiris by treating his damaged cervical spine. Numerous references in th

Abstract:

✓The Edwin Smith Papyrus (circa 1650–1550 BC) is a didactic trauma treatise of major interest to neurosurgery, as it deals primarily with cranial and spine injuries. Information regarding the patient's condition is conveyed in the papyrus with sufficient clarity to allow a clinical assessment of each injury. The ancient Egyptian physician/teacher lists the key diagnostic elements in each case, and then pronounces his opinion of the treatment potential in one of three verdicts: 1) “a medical condition I can treat;” 2) “a medical condition I can contend with;” or 3) “a medical condition you will

Abstract:

21st century medicine is an empirical and best developing study in each of its fields. Based on the experience and discoveries conducted by researchers throughout its rich history, contemporary medicine relies on pure facts. Hippocrates was the father of human anatomy and medical backgrounds. He described the body fluids, the heart and some other internal organs. One of the most prominent researchers in the field of anatomy was also a Roman physician – Galen. He described the heart anatomy and the cardiovascular system in details. However, the biggest contribution to the heart examination was

The ongoing project of digitising a corpus of ancient Greek texts on papyrus dealing with medical topics raises some problematic questions involving general issues of digital papyrology.

Abstract:

Medicine and healing, constantly changing through time, have always been important aspects of life. The desire to avoid the inevitable state of death has driven mankind in all corners of the world to develop certain ways of prolonging life from a very early time. While it is recognized in the modern day that disease and infection are caused by microorganisms such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, the ancient Egyptians believed that gods, demons, and spirits played the main roles in causing such troubles. Therefore, it does not seem strange that, besides being devoted to the use of various na

Abstract:

The aim of this research was to assess the pharmaceutical and therapeutic merit of ancient Egyptian remedies, employing analytical and historical methods, to demonstrate that the Egyptians were practising a credible and reproducible form of pharmacy as early as the 16th century BCE, 1800 years before Galen, the acknowledged 'father of pharmacy'. The 1000 prescriptions in the medical papyri, which provide the literary research source, are renowned for their uncertainty in interpretation and translation of drugs. Consequently, although much has been published, the materia medica of ancient Egypt

Ancient Egyptian dentists come into the spotlight in this dissertation. While some scholars doubt their existence, it is indisputably shown that not only did they exist as a profession, but evidence is offered as to the various diagnoses and treatments they rendered. The Ebers medical papyrus together with other ancient similar medical ‘textbooks’ are analysed and prescriptions dealing with dental maladies are presented. Dentistry as a profession is elucidated in all its facets: diagnosing and treating dental diseases; prevention and care; and restorative and surgical treatment. This disserta

Abstract:

The first tip is to take a full medical history. The trick is to interpret it. Around 400 bc Hippocrates described exertional and sex headaches with no aid other than a reed pen and papyrus or parchment. The second tip is to let patients tell the story in their own words as much as possible. The trick is to extract the salient features of the headache syndrome from what is often a cascade of irrelevancies while still trying to let the patient do most of the talking. This is a form of guided democracy. The final tip is to regard the headache as a pain problem to be analysed and hopefully solved by including a traditional pain history as taught in medical school. The trick is not to take shortcuts unless the patient is in extremis on being brought to the Emergency Department, when leaping straight to testing for neck rigidity and looking for signs of infection, a dilating pupil, and other warning signs is preferable.
