The word scalpel began to be used in Spanish in the fifteenth century, derived from the French scalpel, and this one from the Italian bictorian, which would have its origin in the Italian city of Pistoia, in Tuscany, through the conversion of the p in b (the old name of the city was Pistorium in Latin and PistorĂ­ in French) famous because in it, from the Quattrocento, swords, daggers, daggers and surgical knives were defined as a small knife with varied designs, the emblematic instrument par excellence.
It is composed of a sheet of steel, usually sharp by one edge, called the cutting edge, and by the other non-cutting or blunt, said sheet or sheet coupled to a handle, by which it is handled by the surgeon. The cutting blade can be definitely fixed on the handle or be removable and disposable, after use, to be replaced by another replacement blade.
