"Surgeon Directs as an Assistant Breaks and Resets a Leg" is a woodcut illustration from the "Fasciculus Medicinae," a medical treatise compiled by the German surgeon Hieronymus Brunschwig. First published in 1497 in Latin, the "Fasciculus Medicinae" is a collection of medical texts that includes works by other authors as well as Brunschwig's own writings. It is considered one of the earliest printed surgical manuals and is notable for its use of illustrations to complement the text.

The woodcut in question depicts a scene of a surgical procedure where a surgeon is overseeing an assistant who is breaking and resetting a patient's leg. This image is significant for its historical representation of medical practice and the use of assistants in surgical procedures during the late 15th century. The illustration is characterized by its detailed portrayal of the medical instruments and techniques of the time, providing valuable insight into the state of medical knowledge and practices in the early Renaissance.

The "Fasciculus Medicinae" and its illustrations, including "Surgeon Directs as an Assistant Breaks and Resets a Leg," played a crucial role in disseminating medical knowledge across Europe. The work was widely circulated and translated into several languages, reflecting the growing interest in scientific and medical texts during the period. Brunschwig's treatise, with its practical approach to surgery and emphasis on empirical observation, marks a significant step in the evolution of medical literature and the visual communication of medical procedures.
