RESUMEN
El tratamiento del dolor en la cirugía que se practicaba en Buenos Aires en la primera mitad del siglo XIX se basaba en la administración de opio y alcohol (usualmente vino Carlón). Además de estas sustancias, se apelaba a la sujeción, la sorpresa y el engaño, métodos ya empleados durante centurias. Importante era la rapidez del cirujano, que muchas veces operaba aun sin el auxilio de las sustancias mencionadas. Las operaciones se realizaban en los hospitales de la ciudad o en los domicilios de los pacientes.
ABSTRACT
Treating surgical pain in Buenos Aires during the first half of the 19th century was based on giving the patient opium and alcohol (usually cheap red wine). Also used were centuries-old methods such as binding the patient, taking him by surprise and lying to him. An important factor was the speed of the surgeon who frequently operated even without the help of the mentioned substances. Such surgery was done in the city's hospitals or the patient's home.
