lobotomy
Definición
- As early as 1888, Swiss psychiatrist Gottlieb Burckhardt initiated the first psychosurgery, excising portions of the cerebral cortex in six psychotic patients. His disappointing results were met with hostility and ridicule when he presented his research to colleagues, and both Burckhardt and his work faded into obscurity.
