Androtomy ("dissection of a male" in Ancient Greek) is the dissection of the human body. Another term for it is anthropotomy "dissection of a human". Androtomy is to be distinguished from zoötomy "dissection of an animal". The first recorded dissection of the human body in the Western world took place in ancient Alexandria by Herophilus and Erasistratus. Though none of their writings have come down to us, other medical writers recorded what they had discovered. Galen was another such writer who was familiar with the studies of Herophilus and Erasistratus.

  • L'anthropotomie est la dissection du corps humain. Lorsqu'elle est commencée alors que le sujet est encore en vie, on parle de vivisection humaine. Connue pendant une courte période de l'Antiquité grecque à Alexandrie, où officièrent Hérophile d’Alexandrie et Érasistrate, l'anthropotomie est réapparue en Occident à la fin du XIIIe siècle alors que l'on s'exerçait déjà depuis quelque temps à l'ouverture de cadavres dans le cadre d'opérations telles que des autopsies. Elle permit le développement d'un savoir de plus en plus précis sur l'anatomie humaine et une remise en cause critique du galénisme, notamment par André Vésale, dès lors que l'on comprit que Galien, qui n'avait disséqué que des animaux, avait transposé à l'homme sans les vérifier ses constatations faites sur des singes .

  • Androtomy ("dissection of a male" in Ancient Greek) is the dissection of the human body. Another term for it is anthropotomy "dissection of a human". Androtomy is to be distinguished from zoötomy "dissection of an animal". The first recorded dissection of the human body in the Western world took place in ancient Alexandria by Herophilus and Erasistratus. Though none of their writings have come down to us, other medical writers recorded what they had discovered. One such writer was Celsus who wrote in On Medicine I Proem 23, "Herophilus and Erasistratus proceeded in by far the best way: they cut open living men - criminals they obtained out of prison from the kings and they observed, while their subjects still breathed, parts that nature had previously hidden, their position, color, shape, size, arrangement, hardness, softness, smoothness, points of contact, and finally the processes and recesses of each and whether any part is inserted into another or receives the part of another into itself." Galen was another such writer who was familiar with the studies of Herophilus and Erasistratus. (en)
