Definition
Plural of chilotomy; surgical procedures involving the incision or cutting of the lip or lip-like structures.
Etymology
From Greek cheilos (lip) and tome (cutting), plus the plural -ies ending. This medical term refers to surgical procedures that have been used in both reconstructive and therapeutic contexts.
Kelly Says
Chilotomies in ancient and medieval medicine were sometimes performed to treat lip deformities or conditions—it's a reminder that even with limited tools, surgeons developed specialized techniques for nearly every body part!
