Samuel Rodgers was the inventor of the trocar.He developed it in the 1870s, and patented the trocar (which is very similar to what we have today) in 1878. His method was one of introducing preservative only. In the same year, Auguste Renouard recommended in The Undertakers Manual that preservation should be preceded by aspiration. I would like to add that though chemical (cavity fluid) is added through the trocar (via a gravity feed), first the organs are aspirated of most of their blood and other fluids via a hose attached to that trocar. Suction is provided by water through the sink with a special valve. At the conclusion of the aspiration of the organs in the thoracic and abdominal cavities, the high percentage formaldehyde is introduced via a different hose attached to the trocar and screwed onto the bottle of cavity fluid.

How do you embalm a dead body?

The embalming process is two steps: first embalming fluid is pumped into main vessels of the body, which in turn displace the blood. This is done at four points: the femoral arteries and the radial arteries or sometimes the carotid arteries. Next the embalmer, using a trocar - a long tube with a sharp pointed end, aspirates all of the internal organs to rid them of gasses and fluids, and replaces the abdominal cavity with embalming fluid. The cavity fluid is then aspirated and the hole that's left from the trocar is plugged up with a stopper. If the body has been autopsied, a preservative compound is used and the incisions made by the medical examiner are stitched together using a thick mortuary twine. The body is then dressed, casketed, and cosmetized. In some cases the face is re-sculptured using plastic compounds and putty. In
