    Journal: Schweiz Arch Tierheilkd; 2005 Jan; 147(1):11-9. PubMed ID: 15693682.
    Abstract:
    A number of surgical interventions in ancient veterinary medicine were modelled on the same procedures in human medicine. This is discussed in some detail for the prolapse of the uterus and the couching of the cataract in horses. In the introductory section, the importance of Switzerland and neighbouring areas for the transmission of ancient veterinary medicine is highlighted.
