What is Logotomy?


Question:
Pertains to medical operation

Answers:
It's lobotomy. It's not longer done. They used to insert a rod into the brain and then use it to sever one part of the brain from another one. It was believed they were taking away the bad part of the brain that was causing mental illness, but it usually just messed people up worse and often left them unable to function and live independently.
