Shoquista Operation

The Sjoquist operation is a surgical procedure that was developed by Swedish neurosurgeon Oskar Sjoquist in 1935. The operation was named after its creator and became one of the most significant achievements in the field of neurosurgery.

At the time when Shoquist developed his operation, many doctors believed that the brain could not be operated on, since it was a vital organ. However, Shoquist proved the opposite by performing brain surgery on a patient who suffered from a brain tumor.

Shoquist used his experience in neurosurgery to develop a unique procedure that could remove a brain tumor without damaging surrounding tissue or nerves. He developed a special technique that made it possible to make an incision in the back of the head, which allowed him to reach the tumor without damaging the brain and other important structures.

Shoquist's operation was very successful and allowed the patient to completely get rid of the tumor. However, the procedure was very difficult and dangerous, and many doctors were hesitant to perform it. However, due to its effectiveness, the Shoquist procedure has become one of the most popular procedures in the field of neurosurgery and is still used in medical centers around the world.
