Talk:Coccygotomy

Creation of this article

Coccygotomy was a widely used operation after it was introduced by James Simpson in 1859, but after about 1910 it fell largely into disuse, coccygectomy being used instead. Note I am the author of the reference A history of coccydynia. Jchmiles (talk) 07:55, 2 March 2026 (UTC)

Thanks for adding this note of a potential COI and just as importantly bringing your expertise here! You've cited your own work in proportion, and helpfully included primary sources too. Klbrain (talk) 13:57, 27 April 2026 (UTC)

Thanks for the comments. This is the first page I have created from scratch, and I was lucky to have guidance from my brother who is a long-time Wikipedian to get the content right. It was more complicated than I expected. Jchmiles (talk) 09:52, 29 April 2026 (UTC)
