Surgeries 300 years ago were much more risky because the doctors did not have the knowledge of medicine and the human body that doctors today do. Surgeries were performed in non-sterile conditions and it was often a guessing game. Also, patients were not under anesthetic and many died during surgery or very quickly after because of loss of blood or infection.
