Abstract |
Medical science and the need for the treatment of diseases and injuries, is as old as human history. This research aims to identify and study the first registered shoulder replacement in Ancient Greek Mythology. After a review of literature, the texts that referred to the myth of Pelops’ ivory shoulder were identified and analysed, as were the texts which contain the first citation for shoulder replacement in the prehistoric era.
