Behold, a tracheotomy procedure depicted in Johannes Scultetus's Armamentarium chirurgicum from 1656.

"A complete catalogue of all known surgical instruments of the period, of the methods of bandaging and splinting, and of a vast number of operative procedures; the most widely published illustrated treatise on surgery of the seventeenth century." (Norman, 1912)

Between 1500 and 1833, there are reports of only 28 successful tracheotomies. (x)
