"Tracheotomy Operation, Plate from Traité Complet de l'Anatomie de l'Homme" is a historical medical illustration that appears in the comprehensive anatomical atlas "Traité Complet de l'Anatomie de l'Homme" (Complete Treatise on the Anatomy of Man), authored by the French physician and anatomist Jean-Baptiste Marc Bourgery (1797–1849). The illustration, created by the artist Émile Pochet, was part of the atlas that was published over a period from 1831 to 1854, with additional supplements released posthumously until 1866-67.

The plate specifically depicts the surgical procedure of a tracheotomy, which involves creating an opening in the trachea (windpipe) to allow air to bypass an obstructed upper airway. This was a critical operation for patients with airway obstructions and is still in use today, albeit with modern techniques and instruments.

Bourgery's work is renowned for its detailed and accurate representations of human anatomy and surgical procedures, which were groundbreaking at the time of publication. The atlas itself is a monumental work, consisting of eight volumes with more than 700 plates, illustrating the human body in various states of health and disease. The illustrations by Pochet and other artists, under the direction of Bourgery, were based on dissections and reflect the medical knowledge and surgical practices of the mid-19th century.

The "Tracheotomy Operation" plate is an example of the meticulous work that went into the atlas and serves as a historical document of medical practice. It is not only of interest to medical historians but also to those studying the evolution of medical illustration and the intersection of art and science. The atlas, including the tracheotomy plate, remains a valuable resource for understanding the history of anatomy and surgery.
