Nymphodorus, ({{lang-el|Νυμφόδωρος}}; 3rd century BC), a Greek physician, who must have lived in or before the 3rd century BC, as he is mentioned by Heraclides of Tarentum.[1] He was celebrated for the invention of a machine for the reduction of dislocations, called glossokomon ({{lang-el|γλωσσόκομον}}), which was afterwards somewhat modified by Aristion, and of which a description is given by Oribasius.[2] He is mentioned by Celsus along with several other eminent surgeons.[3]Notes1. ^ap.
