El primero efectuado por el Dr. J. Piernas, que apareció en la revista &#8220;Northwest Medical and Surgical Journal&#8221;; educado en medicina en el Hospital de la Caridad de Nueva Orleans hacia 1850, envió su propuesta de operar por vivisección sin antisepsia en ovejas a fin de tratar los aneurismas por medio de ligadura selectiva arterial a fin de formar un coágulo con revisiones semanales; no obedece a una escuela quirúrgica especifica siendo un evento asilado en nuestra capital estatal. El segundo evento mejor organizado fue realizado por el Dr. G. Pagenstecher para probar una técnica de reparación intestinal secundaria a trauma abdominal con éxito en perros en 1894. Aunque eventos aislados el uno del otro, son dos antecedentes valiosos de las inquietudes de innovación quirúrgica de nuestros cirujanos que consolidaron hasta 1916 con la escuela de cirugía experimental del Dr. Darío Fernández.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[Abstract: We describe two studies of experimental surgery performed on live animal models in San Luis Potosí in the 19th century. The first one was performed by Dr. J. Piernas, who appeared in the magazine &#8220;Northwest Medical and Surgical Journal&#8221;, educated in medicine at the Charity Hospital in New Orleans around 1850, and sent his proposal to operate by vivisection without antisepsis in sheep in order to treat aneurysms by means of selective arterial ligation to form a clot with weekly check-ups; it does not obey a specific surgical school, being an isolated event in our state capital. The second best organized event was performed by Dr. G. Pagenstecher to test a technique of intestinal repair secondary to abdominal trauma successfully in dogs in 1894. Although isolated events from each other, they are two valuable antecedents of the concerns of surgical innovation of our surgeons that were consolidated until 1916 with the school of experimental surgery of Dr. Darío Fernández.]]></p></abstract>
