Abstract
The Esmarch set was created by the German surgeon Johannes F. A. von Esmarch in 1877 for use on the battlefield. It included a transportable leather case that contained a metal mask, a dropper bottle where the chloroform was placed and a tongue forceps to be used when the patient’s tongue obstructed the pharynx. It was used successfully for decades until World War II
