By the beginning of the 20th century, the company had diversified its business to include a line of medical, surgical, dental, veterinary, and ear, nose and throat instruments, including popular atomizers used in the treatment of respiratory diseases. Codman & Shurtleff, Inc. is incorporated. 1911 Codman & Shurtleff, Inc. begins a long and important relationship with Harvey Cushing, MD, of Massachusetts General Hospital. Early collaborations with Dr. Cushing result in the design and manufacture of hemostatic silver clip instruments and, in 1914, his famous hypophysectomy instruments for the removal of the pituitary gland. As one of the first surgeons to specialize in surgery of the head, he is often referred to as the “father of neurosurgery.” This relationship with Cushing establishes Codman’s unique position in supplying the needs of neurosurgeons around the world.
