Sammanfattning
The lobotomy, proposed by Egas Moniz in the 20th century, aimed to treat mental illness by severing brain connections. Initially celebrated, it led to serious cognitive impairments and ethical concerns. Walter Freeman's transorbital lobotomy made the procedure more accessible but controversial. By the 1950s, alternatives emerged, marking a decline in lobotomy's popularity.
