Etymology of RHACHIOTOMY

The word "rhachiotomy" is not commonly used and does not have a well-established etymology. It appears to be a combination of the Greek word "rhachis" (meaning spine) and the suffix "-tomy" (meaning incision or cutting). Thus, "rhachiotomy" could be interpreted as a neologism that refers to a surgical procedure involving the spine. However, since the word is not widely recognized or documented in medical literature, its specific origin and usage may vary.
