Who is Amarro Fiamberti?
Amarro Fiamberti was an Italian psychiatrist who first performed a transorbital lobotomy in 1937. The technique remained rarely practised until his reports were discovered by his contemporary, the American neurologist Walter Freeman, who improved the surgical technique, initially by using ice picks and later employing more refined equipment.
Amarro Fiamberti was later named Director of the Psychiatric Hospital of Varese when it was opened in 1964.
