At the China -Japan Friendship Hospital, everyone is used to calling Xin Yuling "Dean Xin". But in fact, as the president of the Academy, he has only been in this post for more than two years. Only a few months after the hospital officially opened and entered the right track, he retreated, returned to his beloved thoracic surgery, and worked on the operating table to 89 years old. He was famous all over the country.

At the beginning of 2021, when he was his century, Ma Xiaowei, director of the Health and Health Commission, commented that he was a banner of health cadres trained by the party. He was very low -key among the intellectuals in the past and was a noble and pure person. This year, he won the Seventh Medal.

In the last days of life, he sometimes danced, saying that the sacrificed comrades -in -arms were talking to him. The caregiver asked where his comrades were, and he said he was sitting on the sofa, sitting in a row, don't step on their feet. Sometimes he still shouted, "Doctor Bai! Doctor Bai!"

The time returned to May 1939. At that time, he was a 18 -year -old small health officer in the Ministry of Health of the Eighth Route Army Hebei Military Region. Half a year later, Bethune died infected with sepsis during the rescue of the wounded at the age of 49.

On June 7, 2022, 101 -year -old Xin Yuling died of illness in the China -Japan Friendship Hospital prepared by himself. He finally returned to his comrades.

"Golden Age"

In December 1979, the then Japanese Prime Minister Daiping came to China to visit China. In the previous year, China and Japan signed the "China -Japan Peace Friendship Treaty". During the visit, Prime Minister Daping attended the signing ceremony of the China -Japan Science and Technology Cooperation Agreement. In his speech, he said that Japan "will give positive cooperation at all" for China's efforts to achieve modernization. During this period, he said that the Japanese side was willing to aid a hospital in Beijing.

In the 1980s, Song Yunfu, who was the director of the Department of Foreign Affairs of the Ministry of Health, told China News Weekly that the Ministry of Health and the other party discussed the interest -free loan construction hospital with the other party, but the relevant departments did not agree because public hospitals did not make money. Well, unable to repay the loan. At that time, Qian Xinzhong, then Minister of Health, negotiated with the Japanese Medical Association in the name of the president of the Chinese Medical Association. He hoped that the other party would impact the Japanese government with its authoritative position in the Japanese medical community. In the end, the Japanese party agreed to build freely.

In 1981, the Chinese and Japanese governments signed a aid agreement, and the Japanese side gave 16.5 billion yen (about 280 million yuan) to build a modern international hospital integrating medical, teaching and scientific research in Beijing. Named "China -Japan Friendship Hospital".

In May 1982, Xin Yuling, the director of the Central Division of the Central Division, served as the first dean of the China -Japan Friendship Hospital. This was proposed by the Minister of Health Qian Xinzhong, because Xin Yuling was an old party member who joined the party in 1939. He studied the Soviet Union. After the founding of New China, he became a pioneer in the field of thoracic surgery in China and had rich experience in medical management.

In the wooden room built temporarily at the Beijing Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine (currently known as Beijing University of Traditional Chinese Medicine), Xin Yuling started the preparations for more than two years. He recalled that time in the age of 100: "That's a golden age."

According to the agreement, the Japanese side invested a total of 16.5 billion yen for the China -Japan Friendship Hospital, but it was not all cash, but it was priced at the property, that is, the construction materials were purchased in China, and the medical instruments used Japanese products.

Xin Yuling proposed that precision instruments such as imaging diagnosis, radiation therapy, inspection equipment and electron microscopes should purchase new generations of European and American products. The Japanese do not agree and insist on providing Japanese products in accordance with the agreement.

On the eve of Nissan equipment entering the hospital, Xin Yuling went to Japan to investigate on the spot, focusing on investigating the high -end instruments of Japanese hospitals. He asked his origin and price carefully, and finally concluded that 80%of the Japanese hospitals' high -end instruments were European and American products.

After returning to China, Xin Yuling reported to Qian Xinzhong, hoping that the Japanese side would invest in 20 billion yen to purchase high -end equipment in Europe and the United States. Qian Xinzhong proposed that if the Japanese insist on not investing in investment, can they consider the rehabilitation center without planning, and use the funds to buy equipment? Xin Yuling thought it was impossible, and explained his reasons, and Qian Xinzhong agreed with his opinion. Xin Yuling reported to Wanli and Gu Mu, and Gu Mu met with the Japanese ambassador to China.

Since then, Xin Yuling conducted seven negotiations on the same day and did not negotiate. The Japanese side believed that the demands of the Chinese side were too harsh.

In the end, the Japanese side increased 2 billion yen investment and reached an agreement on the establishment of the court. In addition, Xin Yuling raised 1 billion yen through Japanese folk channels, and from domestic ministries and commissions to more than 10 million yuan to allocate funds, basically supplemented the funding gap.

During the design process, the collision between China and Japan continued. The coal -burning boiler designed by the Japanese side is not suitable for China's national conditions. The problems of the trial operation frequently affect the power supply of the hospital. Xin Yuling strives to rebuild the Japanese side. There is no employee cafeteria in the Japanese design plan. Some superiors say that since the hospital is presented by the Japanese side, he accepts whatever he gives, but Xin Yuling insists that he will not sign until the other party accepts the Chinese opinion.

According to the agreement, the infrastructure and medical equipment of the hospital area are assisted by the Japanese side for free, and the bedding in the ward is equipped by the Chinese side. During the end of the establishment of the hospital, the Japanese Badminton Jets Co., Ltd. stated that she was willing to assist bedding for free. The Xin Yuling Scripture asked the Ministry of Health and decisively retired from domestic reservations and saved a cost of expenses.

"Start up to start, and look far away."

Is China and Japan Friendship Hospital running into a Chinese and Western Medicine Integrated Hospital or a simple Western Medicine Hospital or Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital. It is directly under the Ministry of Health or a university affiliated hospital. Some people support more than 20 Chinese medicine doctors to the center of the book, hoping to attach to the Beijing Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine in China and Japan Friendship Hospital, and choose to change a dean who loves Chinese medicine. In the autumn of 1983, the leaders of the Ministry of Health and the State Planning Commission accompanied the central leaders to visit the hospital for preparation. At the meeting, Xin Yuling suggested to implement the original settlement of the original establishment hospital, and at the same time, it built another 400 affiliated hospital for Beijing College of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

After investigation, the central government made a decision. The China -Japan Friendship Hospital should be led by the Ministry of Health. The State Planning Commission also established a new affiliated hospital for the School of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

China -Japan Friendship Hospital has 1,000 beds with a medical department and 300 beds with beds, and the Institute of Clinical Medicine and Senior Nursing Schools. There are 2640 personnel, including 1885 sanitation technicians, as 50%western medicine and 25%Chinese medicine , 25%of Chinese and Western medicine are equipped.

Liu Deruo, chief physician of the Department of Chestning of the China -Japan Friendship Hospital, recalled that at that time, the China -Japan Friendship Hospital was the largest hospital in the country, and the equipment was the highest -end. At that time, 500 beds were a large hospital, and 1,300 hospital hospitals had never heard of it.

At that time, the hospital could not recruit employees by itself, and relying on the Ministry of Health to support the relevant hospitals to support it. Xin Yuling invited Bian Zhiqiang, who had served as Zhou Enlai's health care doctor, and invited Lu Yan from Xiehe Hospital as the director of the radiology department.

The hospital is equipped with a large number of precision instruments, which requires high -tech talents to take over. Xin Yuling went to major hospitals to choose hires, but the result was not ideal. He has repeatedly negotiated with the central ministries and commissions, and the Central Organization Department has approved 50 indicators to enter Beijing, and transferred a group of professional leaders from various provinces and cities. He also signed an agreement with the Japanese side, arranged for the personnel of the entire department of the department or above to take turns to study in Japan for half a year, and the administrative staff went to Japan for three months.

In 1983, the Zeng Constitution of the Ministry of Electronics Industry was noticed by Xin Yuling, who was urgently needed by Japanese talents because of frequent participation in Japanese foreign affairs activities. You don't give it personally! "Zeng Constitution was transferred like this, and since then he served as the director of the hospital's foreign affairs office.

Zeng Constitution told China News Weekly that the personnel assigned by Xin Yuling later became the backbone of the hospital. Qian Xinzhong had a evaluation saying that the construction progress of the China -Japan Friendship Hospital was significantly accelerated after Xin Yuling's administration.

Toshiro, the president of Chiba University in Japan, was the head of the Japanese aid construction expert group. Xin Yuling proposed to him that the hospital also lacked a library. After several communication, the Japanese side agreed to support the construction. Zeng Constantine went to Japan to inspect modern library systems such as registration, retrieval, borrowing, and returning books, but before it was implemented, Xin Yuling stepped down as the dean's position, and the construction of the library was put on hold.

In February 1984, Liu Xiaoqin, a transfer doctor of the army, heard that China -Japanese Friendship Hospital was recruiting and went to the hospital to recommend himself. Xin Yuling talked to him for 15 minutes, and took him to the Personnel Office to complete the employment procedure as the secretary of the hospital office.

Later, Liu Xiaoqin, who became the vice president of China -Japan Friendship Hospital, told China News Weekly. At that time, the preparation of the China -Japan Friendship Hospital had a great response in the society. I can't feel at the same time. The personnel deployed from various places are the backbone of the original unit, with different academic views and difficult coordination. It is even more difficult to integrate into a whole.

Xin Yuling once said that it takes decades to form his own traditional culture to form his own traditional culture. Liu Xiaoqin believes that in this regard, Xin Yuling has done a lot of work, can calm down the situation, and tolerate people in all aspects.

Xin Yuling adheres to the China -Japan Friendship Hospital "to start a higher start and focus on it." It is believed that the hospital must have a "window effect". It is a window for modern management, a window for traditional Chinese and western medicine, a window for international medical exchanges. The window.

The leadership team of the hospital has formulated 6 management methods: the implementation of the dean's responsibility system; the personnel at all levels implement the assessment and appointment and the regular contract system; Working system; Dean has the right to invite foreign experts to lecture and exchanges in the college. Xin Yuling also implemented the responsibility system of the department, requiring the treatment plan to consult the department for consultation. The director of the department was patted.

He determined the concept of "patient first, civilized medicine", and adopted the pattern of small clinics and large wards. Considering the aging trend of the future, barrier -free facilities are also set up in the ward. He is still late at night and is still in the desk, circled on the drawing, the area of ​​the outpatient hall, the width and narrowness of the ward corridor, the number of roof chandeliers ... all need to be considered repeatedly.

He asked Hu Yaobang and Deng Yingchao to write down the name of the hospital, and asked the national emblem designer Zhou Lingzhao to design the courtyard emblem symbolizing the friendship of China and Japan. Combined courtyard flag.

The courtyard district built Nanyuan Garden, Sakura Garden, Jianzhen Garden, tennis court, goal court, basketball court, football field. Among them, Nan Garden imitated the construction of Suzhou garden style, which cost 1.2 million yuan, and some people told Xin Yuling. However, he insisted that the hospital should have a beautiful medical environment, which is conducive to the patient's rehabilitation and the physical and mental health of the medical staff.

Entrusted by Xin Yuling, Liu Xiaoqin customized the marble stone monument for each Chinese and Japanese units who had funded China -Japan Friendship Hospital. These steles still stand in the South Garden. When the president of the Japanese Badminton Plaza Co., Ltd. died, Liu Xiaoqin made a special trip to Japan to participate in the farewell ceremony of the body on behalf of the hospital. Xin Yuling said to him, "You do this well. We must not forget the help of Japanese friends. We must be grateful."

Tradition of thoracic surgery

On October 23, 1984, the China -Japan Friendship Hospital held a grand opening ceremony, and the leaders of the two countries attended the ceremony. That day, Xin Yuling registered the first medical number of the China -Japan Friendship Hospital for herself.

A few months later, Xin Yuling resigned from the position of Dean and returned to the thoracic surgery.

Ge Bingsheng, then director of thoracic surgery, graduated in 1959 and assigned to the Central Tuberculosis Research Institute (predecessor of Beijing Chest Hospital). In 1984, Ge Bingsheng was transferred to the China -Japan Friendship Hospital by Xin Yuling.

Ge Bingsheng told China News Weekly that few hospitals in China set up chest surgery in the 1950s and 1960s, and some hospitals just hung a brand but did not work. Xin Yuling took the lead and held a training course for thoracic surgeons at the Central Tuberculosis Research Institute for nearly 20 consecutive years. One year each year, 20 students were recruited. He also instructed to assist more than 40 hospitals formed thoracic surgery. From 1958 to 1980, he trained more than 1,000 thoracic technical backbones for China. Chinese thoracic surgery began to flourish from this time. He has a clear features of thoracic surgery. He dares to do what others dare not do. For example, patients with intensive thoracic surgery and difficult patients who have complications in other hospitals have also carried out lung transplantation surgery in China.

In August 1984, Song Zhiyi, a graduate of the Japanese Medical Class of the Department of Medical University of China Medical University, entered the work of thoracic surgery after two rounds of assessment. He is currently a deputy chief physician of the Sino -Japanese Friendship Hospital. The culture department is very united.

In 1986, Song Zhiyi became the first master's graduate student of Xin Yuling and followed him to do a monoclonal antibody research topic. Song Zhiyi said that Xin Yuling's concept was very ahead, and immunotherapy began to fire in recent years, but he realized the importance of this therapy for tumor treatment at that time. He told Song Zhi: "Xiao Song, if you study the monoclonal antibody, you will receive the Nobel Prize in Medicine." However, due to the limitations of conditions, this research cannot continue to be carried out and can only change the topic.

Xin Yuling's new subject handed over to Song Zhiyi was electrochemical therapy. At that time, there was no theoretical basis for electrochemical therapy. When Xin Yuling learned that the results of the Affiliated Hospital of the Dutch University had published the experimental results of the treatment of epidermal tumors, Xin Yuling had the idea of ​​applying it to lung cancer treatment.

In 1990, the electrochemical therapy was formally approved by the Ministry of Health for clinical practice. It is still not suitable for important treatment methods for patients with advanced cancer patients who cannot use chemotherapy. At that time, electrochemical therapy was basically used for patients' palliative treatment. The cost was about 500 yuan. Some patients had no conditional treatment. Xin Yuling paid for them, and the cost could be reduced. In order to reduce the burden on the patient, he has long insisted on not setting up a special expert number, and only an ordinary expert number. Song Zhiyi said that thoracic surgery is still less and less.

In 1992, Liu Deruo applied for the doctoral student of Xin Yuling. When he was internship at the Third Hospital of Bethune Medical University in 1982, Xin Yuling was invited to perform surgery for the dean and a doctor. From then on, he knew that Xin Yuling's surgery was done fast and good. It is less than an hour to close the chest, and generally this operation takes at least one and a half hours.

During the "Cultural Revolution", the rebels performed statistics, saying that Xin Yuling had undergone more than 7,000 operations since the medical, and criticized him as a typical "white special" who "only cares about bowing his head to pull the car and never look up." The title of "surgery fans" ordered him to "put down the butcher knife and accept the transformation". He stood as a "capitalist" and both approved him, but he looked for him for surgery.

Xin Yuling's surgical style is unique. Most doctors will replace the separation pliers for dull separation after using scissors cutting tissue. The dissection technology is quite strong, and the separation of blood vessels is cleaned and thorough. Ge Bingsheng said that thoracic doctors like to learn his operation methods. Its advantage is that it is stable and fast, which can shorten the operation time, but this requires high operating levels and must be technically familiar. Otherwise, it is prone to terrible risks such as major bleeding. Affected by Xin Yuling, Ge Bingsheng himself only separated from sharpness.

During the doctoral interview, Xin Yuling asked Liu Deruo. When the right lung leaf was removed, where did the upper right upper pulmonary vein be separated from the clung? Liu Deruse, who has become the chief physician of the thoracic surgery department of Beijing China -Japan Friendship Hospital, told China News Weekly that doctors with clinical experience in thoracic surgery must know that they should anatomy from the upper upper upper upper upper upper and upper pneumons, but those who have not worked in thoracic scholars must be If he couldn't answer, he often asked the candidate the question when he was a examiner.

Liu Deruo remembers that Xin Yuling has strict requirements, but he often criticizes it. When he encounters a serious mistake, he loves to say "you should shot this", but he is always wider when dealing with.

Thoracoscope surgery was performed earlier in the mid -1990s. Liu Deruo said that Xin Yuling had a major surgery, but he supported thoracoscopic surgery. He said that thoracoscopic surgery should not be called minimally invasive surgery, because surgery should never be minimally invasive. Xin Yuling also left a tradition to thoracic surgery, that is, try not to use the lungs that are not removed with oval clamps, but use cotton balls to prevent damage. When touching the lung lobe, the movement should be extremely gentle. Essence

In 2003, the China -Japan Friendship Hospital was designated by the Central Committee as SARS Prevention and Control Hospital. The 80 -year -old Xin Yuling was the leader of the expert group and participated in the consultation of each intensive patient. At that time, the China -Japan Friendship Hospital had no revenue and serious losses. Only Xin Yuling was happy, because SARS is the most important disease that needs to be overcome. After SARS, the influence of the China -Japan Friendship Hospital increased, the outpatient volume surged, and even overwhelmed.

In the first five years of the opening of the hospital, the amount of thoracic surgery did not exceed two hundred cases, and now the amount of surgery is now 3,000. In 2021, more than 200 patients across the country were successfully transplanted, and nearly 100 cases of thoracic surgery in China -Japan Friendship Hospital.

Doctor Rulan

The office of the Chiefs of the Church Surgery has always left a table for Xin Yuling. He is very talkative. When he is free, he will chat in Tiannanhai North, and he likes to talk about the days in Yan'an.

Her daughter Xin Xiaomei once recalled that Xin Yuling likes to play, can photograph, and love sports. When she was young, as long as she had the opportunity to travel trunks, she must bring swimming trunks. As long as she had a little time to enjoy life, she must catch it.

After the age of 85, he was gradually unstable due to lumbar disease, and he pushed a mobility to go to the hospital for clinic. He wanted to do lumbar spine surgery as soon as possible, but all the experts he had found refused because degenerative diseases had no surgical significance and may even aggravate the condition. He was also clear about this, but in 2008, he insisted on surgery. He said, "I still have a breath, never give up, I still want to do it."

At the age of 89, one day he had a clinic, and from the morning to noon, he suddenly couldn't stand up. Since then, he has never been able to return to the thoracic surgery. However, he has always had hope for re -"work", and he was actively recovering for a long time, and he did not officially retire until the age of 97.

In November 2014, the Japanese chief designer of the year, accompanied by Wang Chen, dean of the China -Japan Friendship Hospital, took a pot of orchids he liked to visit him with a pot of orchids he liked. When he saw Rangchuan Hiroshi's excitement, he loudly reviewed the story of the establishment of the hospital 30 years ago.

When the party was established for a century, he won the highest honor "Seven One Medal" within the party, and awarded it as: "The pioneer and founder of the New China's thoracic surgery. Injury. In the peaceful age, he has long been committed to the establishment and development of Chinese thoracic surgery in my country. It is the first person in the Chinese human lung transplantation surgery. He has achieved a breakthrough from 0 to 1 'in many aspects of thoracic surgery. "

On the first day of the New Year in 2021, Xin Yuling spent his centenary birthday in the ward.

His body was getting worse, and the hospital reported several times. He had instructed his family to have no creative treatment at the beginning of the family meeting. The hospital respects his wishes and worked greatly, and he also insisted on stubbornly for nearly a year.

He wore an oxygen rhinum pipe, pronounced mixed but expressed clearly accepted an interview with the "Medical" column of Beijing Radio and Television. After a lapse of 80 years, the past dust seemed to have not reduced pain.

"Bethune, rescue the wounded. In 1939, the rescue of the wounded, on the front line, in Ji Zhong ..." He closed his eyes and murmured, "Oh, it's cruel! Oh, it's cruel ..."

At that time, the names of the medicine were all English. Xin Yuling understood English, so after being trained by the Health Ministry of Health of the Jizhong Military Region, he was sent to the Bethune Medical Team. The Bethune Medical Team is very close to the front line. Everyone said that it is too close, but Bethune said that the closer to the front line, the more the wounded. As an assistant, he always followed Bethune. Bethune was on the front line, and he used the medicine to carry the medicine; Bethune performed surgery, and he helped the wounded classification.

Xin Yuling remembers that one day it was raining, and the enemy soon surrounded the wing. Just a soldier was sent over, and the abdominal wall was penetrated by bullets. The guards came to convey He Long's order again, asking Baihune to retreat immediately, and caught him without retreat. However, Bai Qien insisted on cleaning the large blood around the soldier's intestines with the boiled cold water, stuffing the intestines back, sutured the wounds of the abdominal wall, and then wrapped the wound with a bandage before moving with everyone.

The people around guess that Xin Yuling became a thoracic surgeon was influenced by Bethune because Bethune was a thoracic surgeon. Xin Yuling had a scar on his left arm life, which was the wound stitched by Bethune for him.
