  • The Integration of Surgery Into Cardiology: Lessons from the Heart Club 1948-1956 Cardiac Care
    Integrative Clinical Cardiology Open Access Full Text Article Short Communication The Integration of Surgery into Cardiology: Lessons from the Heart Club 1948-1956 Cardiac Care This article was published in the following Scient Open Access Journal: Integrative Clinical Cardiology Received October 04, 2017; Accepted October 13, 2017; Published October 19, 2017 Tom Treasure* It is abundantly clear now, and goes without saying, that surgeons are an integral Professor of Cardiothoracic Surgery, University part of the heart team. But there is an interesting paradox in our history which is brought College London, Clinical Operational Research Unit, London, UK to light, or perhaps it would be more reflective to say that it “dawned” on me, in my research during compiling and writing my book “The Heart Club” [1]. In the late 1940s innovation in intracardiac surgery was beginning in London, but it was not and could not be at the National Hospital for Diseases of the Heart because it had no surgeons or operating department, and would not have until cardiac surgery was established. London had very well developed specialist thoracic surgery at The Brompton but that was a chest hospital. Thoracic surgery had largely come about for the treatment of tuberculosis on the pre-antibiotic era. The hospital had no cardiological practice or specialist heart doctors. Heart surgery was unlikely to start there either. It needed an integrated team. And so, despite a fine tradition of specialist hospitals, when surgery for heart disease started in London, it was at a general hospital: that was Guy’s Hospital. It was Russell Brock who convened the meeting that led to the formation of the Club.

  • Arthur Tudor Edwards
    THORACIC SURGERY: AND THE LONG-TERM RESULTS OF OPERATION FOR BRONCHIAL CARCINOMA The Tudor Edwards Memorial Lecture delivered at the Royal College of Surgeons of England on 20th May 1964 by Sir Russell Brock, M.S., F.R.C.S., Hon. F.R.A.C.S., Hon. F.A.C.S. President of the Royal College of Surgeons of England; Surgeon to Guy's Hospital and to the Brompton Hospital Fig. 1. Arthur Tudor Edwards. ARTHUR TUDOR EDWARDS (Fig. 1) was born in 1890 and died in 1946 at the early age of 56. In honour of his memory and of his great surgical achievements his friends, colleagues and admirers subscribed to a Memorial Fund that was used in 1948 to endow a named lecture. It is my privilege to deliver the lecture on this occasion and I have to thank the President of the Royal College of Physicians and the members of the committee representing the two Royal Colleges who administer the Fund for doing me the honour of appointing me. This is the fifth lecture. The first was given in 1949 by Dr. Shenstone, the next in 1955 by Sir Geoffrey Marshall, the third in 1958 by Sir Clement Price Thomas and the last one in 1961 by Dr. Comroe. Both Sir Geoffrey Marshall and Sir Clement Price Thomas were closely associated with Tudor Edwards over many years. I was fortunate in 195 SIR RUSSELL BROCK being associated with him from 1934 until his death, although not so intimately as these two previous lecturers. Alas, few of his direct associ- ates are still with us.
