17 - The Iceman

In 1991, two hikers near the Austrian-Italian border discovered the 5,000 year-old mummified body of Otzi the Iceman buried in a glacier. What have we learned about medicine from the Iceman?

Learn more with Episode 17 of Bedside Rounds, a tiny podcast about fascinating stories in clinical medicine!
