"Three people, all of them are knife wounds!"

In Professor Bergman and John? Under the gaze of Mr. Huntelaar's two bigwigs, a young surgeon said hurriedly: "They were all sent by the police, one of them was wounded in the abdomen, one had his right hand cut off, and the last one was injured in the heart!" ”

"Abdomen and heart?"

Hearing the young doctor's last words, John and Professor Bergman frowned at the same time.

The guy who had his right hand cut off said that anyway, now that vascular anastomosis has just been proposed, even the "pioneer" John has not yet started in-depth experiments, so don't even think about amputated limb replantation or anything. As long as you ensure that you follow the treatment principles of open wounds, you can clean and disinfect, stop bleeding, suture, eat some sulfonamide to prevent infection, and the rest depends on the individual's physical fitness.

But the two guys who hurt the abdomen and heart, it's trouble.

Just as Bergman was about to ask questions, the young doctor continued: "The one with the severed hand has already been dealt with, and although there is a bit of blood loss, it should not be a big problem; But the one who was injured in the abdomen was no longer good, and he was stabbed five or six times in a row, and he was already dead just now......"

"Already dead?"

Hearing the young doctor's words, Professor Jobergman's face darkened, and his eyes looked at him a little unkindly: "That's why you asked the nurse to hurry to me?" One had his right hand cut off, and the other had been stabbed in the heart? ”

"This ......"

Under Professor Bergman's burning gaze, the young doctor bowed his head a little aggrieved. When he sent someone to call Professor Bergman, he didn't know that the guy with the knife in the abdomen would die so quickly!

"So, what about the one who was left with a knife in the heart?"

At this time, John next to him suddenly asked.

"I'm still alive."

The young doctor was still a little frightened, but he replied with an innocent face. But I don't know why, after John heard it, he suddenly felt cold!

"Alright. You go first. ”

After understanding the specific situation, Bergman waved his hand for the young doctor to leave, then turned his head and smiled: "John, I think I can leave the rest of the matter to them, and let's go back and talk about your two books......

"Professor, I want to see this patient."

Without waiting for Bergman to finish. John shook his head.

"Who to see?"

Bergman was stunned when he heard this, and asked in surprise, "John, which patient do you want to see?" The severed hand is already being dealt with, so there should be no problem...... Uh, you wouldn't want to see the patient who had a knife in the heart, would you? This...... What's so nice about this? ”

As John shook his head first and then nodded, Bergman's brow furrowed.

"Professor, I just want to check it out."

After taking a deep breath, John said lightly: "From being stabbed in the heart to being sent to the hospital, and then the two of us came here." I think there's at least an hour or two, right? But the patient is still alive, don't you wonder what the situation is? ”

"But ......"

His eyebrows twitched slightly, but Professor Bergman was still a little hesitant.

Seeing the hesitation of the surgical professor, John certainly knew why. On the one hand, of course, his two books are attractive enough, especially the new edition of Surgery, which incorporates many research results from Heinz General Hospital; On the other hand, of course, it's because of the patient's injury.

The heart was an absolute no-go for surgeons at the end of the 19th century!

People living in the 21st century. I enjoy medical care that I have never taken for granted. But they often don't think about it. If we push back more than 100 years, what will happen to those seemingly ordinary patients: for example, ordinary acute appendicitis is enough to kill people; Another example is that rain in the field or even through the wet grass can cause people to catch a cold, which can develop into pneumonia and eventually die in a hospital bed.

In the long history of mankind. The role of conventional medicine is extremely limited.

At this point, neither Eastern nor Western medicine was able to provide a systematic treatment for any one disease, until the end of the 19th century, when various disciplines developed and matured, and the modern medical system was truly established. Only then did this profession, which has been around for thousands of years, begin to truly become a science!

Surgery, known as the "flower of medicine", was developed during this period.

As mentioned countless times before, the emergence of anesthesia technology has provided the most basic soil for the development of surgery, and it is precisely because of the development of this technology that surgeons have begun to explore surgical disinfection technology, hemostasis technology and blood transfusion technology. For example, hemostats, from the perspective of later generations, the design is very simple, but it did not appear until the 70s of the 19th century, because before the advent of anesthesia, the so-called hemostatic technology was meaningless! Because surgeons don't have the option of stopping bleeding that is less invasive but requires specific conditions, they are more accustomed to using a red-hot iron or hot oil because it's faster and more convenient.

Bacteriology and surgical sterilization techniques have further advanced the development of surgery.

The abdominal cavity used to be a forbidden area for surgeons, but when the anesthesia technique developed, and when John perfected the surgical sterilization technique started by Semelwis and popularized by Liszt, the surgeons began to march into the abdomen as if they had mastered a new weapon!

In just a few years, the abdominal cavity is no longer off-limits for surgeons.

At the same time, the 1st and 2nd gastric surgeries pioneered by Professor Bierrot in Vienna, Austria, and John's perfect appendectomy opened the door for surgeons!

It is because of his outstanding contributions to history that Professor Bierrot has later become the father of surgery by some.

The title of the father of a certain discipline will be used too much in the future, but it is undeniable that it is precisely because of Bierrot's pioneering contributions in the field of surgery, such as autopsy, animal experiments, etc., that surgeons have mastered the most basic concepts of modern surgery, and the abdominal cavity has become their "galloping racetrack"! So in this respect, it makes sense that Bierrot is called the father of surgery, because his achievements are truly brilliant.

But it was the Viennese surgeon whom John respected so much, who once said: "To operate on the heart is to desecrate the art of surgery, and anyone who tries to perform heart surgery will be ruined!" ”

This sentence is known as Billrot's curse.

In fact, not only Professor Bierrot, but also a famous British surgeon of the same period once argued in a book that cardiac surgery may have reached the natural limits of surgery, and that no new method or invention can overcome the natural difficulties of dealing with cardiac trauma.

At the end of the 19th century, in Europe and around the world, the view of cardiac surgery could no longer be described as pessimistic.

It's clear that there's no hope for the future of cardiac surgery!

So when he heard that another patient who was still alive had an injury in the heart, Professor Bergman didn't want to look at it. Because as a famous surgeon, for his own honor, Bergman could not have tried to do a heart surgery at all!

John, who had been in this era for many years, certainly knew this.

However, even if he knew the situation of this era very well, and knew that if history had gone according to its original trajectory, it would have been at least another fifty years for surgeons to really touch the edge of the heart, but at this moment, an impulse suddenly burst out in his heart, an impulse that could not be suppressed......
