One of the most important advances in surgery arrived near the end of the nineteenth century. The British surgeon Joseph Lister hypothesized that using techniques to sterilize surgical tools and clean the skin at the site of the incision would reduce surgical site infections. Years later, Dr. Lister wrote this: "Nothing was formerly more striking in surgical experience than the difference in the behavior of injuries according to whether the skin was implicated or not. Thus, if the bones of ...
