On the achievements of Academician Uglov

Before proceeding to the story about the life of Fedor Grigorievich, one should list his main achievements so that the reader understands the scale of the personality in question.

Academician Fedor Uglov, who passed away at the age of one hundred and four, in addition to membership in the Russian Academy of Sciences, was also a member of the Union of Writers and many scientific societies, both Soviet (and then Russian) and international. In the State Orthodox Foundation, he served as president, and the staff of the International Slavic Academy entrusted him with the post of vice president. In addition, Uglov published the Journal of Surgery.

But most clearly, he, of course, proved himself in the role of a practicing doctor. He was appreciated at home and abroad, called the engine of Russian surgery and compared with the pioneers in the field of space exploration.

The surgeon Fedor Uglov was a pioneer in performing the most complex operations on the heart, esophagus, lungs and other organs. It was he who invented the artificial heart valve. He personally tested and made the property of medicine many effective surgical techniques.

This man was said to have been born with a scalpel in his hand. Uglov possessed a unique surgical technique, and many luminaries of world medicine gave him a standing ovation after the operations performed by the Russian.

Uglov Fedor Grigorievich: biography

He was born on October 5 (September 22, old style), 1904, in the small village of Chuguevo, belonging to the Irkutsk province, in the family of simple peasants Grigory Gavrilovich and Anastasia Nikolaevna Uglov. The childhood of the surgeon passed in the countryside, in very modest, almost Spartan conditions. Mom and dad had six children, and the family could not boast of prosperity.

Nevertheless, the parents managed to educate five of their six offspring. After the end of the Kirenskaya ten-year Uglov, Fedor decides to study further. Having learned about his son's decision, his father gives him money for the journey to Irkutsk and declares that he can't help him anymore. Not now, not later. A talented and stubborn guy had to achieve everything himself. He literally started from scratch.

Higher education

In Irkutsk, Uglov enters the Faculty of Medicine at the East Siberian University without any problems. He studies with rapture and great diligence, apparently already feeling his destiny in the chosen field.

During his student days, a story happened to the guy, on the example of which he was convinced that there is a blessing in disguise. In 1924, while in his second year, Fedor Uglov visited Leningrad and after the trip became very seriously ill. His body fought at once with two varieties of typhus - typhus and abdominal. The disease gave complications, sepsis began. For a long time, a twenty-year-old youth hung over the abyss. If not for the help of a classmate who undertook to nurse him, despite having a small child, Uglov would hardly have been lucky enough to survive.

Subsequently, this kind girl became Fedor's wife, and he himself successfully graduated from the university - however, not in Irkutsk, but in Saratov, where he transferred after an illness. The doctors advised him to change his place of residence, since the cold Siberian climate harmed Uglov's health.

First steps in medicine

The future of light-Russian medicine Fedor Uglov, whose biography began in a remote village, did not have enough stars from the sky and walked slowly to his heights, achieving success through hard work.

Having received his diploma in the twenty-ninth year, he worked as a simple district doctor in the countryside. First in the Lower Volga region, then moved to Abkhazia.

Two years later, Uglov managed to get a place in the Leningrad Hospital. Mechnikov, and after completing the internship, he ended up in the inter-district hospital of the water workers of the city of Kirensk, where he was the chief physician, and then the head of the surgical department.

The doctor was still far from universal recognition, although his personality already attracted the attention of colleagues. Which, however, were more often skeptical about the work of the young surgeon and did not particularly trust his talents.

Career Development

Not wanting to stop there and limit himself to the role of a simple hospital worker, Uglov Fedor in 1937 became a graduate student at the Leningrad Medical Institute for the Improvement of Doctors and actively worked on scientific articles. His first topics were the complications of typhoid fever and the development of surgery in the provinces - all that was close and very familiar. He chose one of the types of tumors as a topic for his Ph.D. thesis, and resection of the lungs for his doctoral thesis.

At the institute, Fedor Grigorievich worked first as an assistant, and then as an assistant professor in the Department of Surgery. And all this - against the backdrop of military events.

Work during the war

It should be noted that Fedor Uglov managed to visit the front during the Soviet-Finnish campaign, serving as a senior surgeon in the medical battalion from 1939 to 1940. And when the Great Patriotic War broke out, the talented doctor was not drafted into the army, apparently considering his role in the rear more important. Uglov operated in one of the Leningrad hospitals and steadfastly survived the fascist blockade.

In his own words, he did not die of hunger only thanks to luck. For some time, he replaced the head of the hospital and was obliged to try the food that was fed to the sick - and he survived.

900 blockade days left an indelible mark on Uglov's memory. He often recalled how they operated under the bombing, without heating and in almost complete darkness. But in spite of everything, it was possible to save people.

1st Leningrad Medical University

Most of Fedor Grigoryevich's working life was spent within the walls of the First Leningrad Medical Institute, where he worked from 1950 to 1990, heading the Department of Hospital Surgery.

During this period, Uglov Fedor Grigoryevich created his own surgical school, bringing up a whole galaxy of first-class specialists. In parallel with his studies with students, he continues to actively practice, performing unique operations.

Longevity

Uglov Fedor Grigoryevich, whose biography began at the dawn of the twentieth century, managed to capture the 21st century as well, having lived for 103 years and several months. At the same time, until the last days he retained a bright mind, good spirits and was physically active. When he retired, he read a lot (especially historical literature), worked in the garden, liked to have picnics in nature and skiing. Constantly tempered the body, and the soul was kept in good shape by sincere faith in God.

The academician's youngest child was born when he was already sixty-six years old. And being a centenary old man, Uglov claimed that he still maintains sexual activity and lives a regular sex life. And all thanks to the fact that even in his youth he limited the number of sexual intercourses to one or two times a week.

He was even listed in the Guinness Book of Records as the oldest practicing surgeon. In the presence of witnesses, Uglov performed the operation at the age of 100.

The outstanding surgeon was often asked how he managed to live so long, because there were revolutions, wars, blockade, famine behind him ... And he willingly shared his secrets, strongly recommending them to all applicants for longevity:

Fedor Uglov, whose photo is presented in this article, did not look decrepit even at the end of his life. And his soul also retained youth. Therefore, the advice of an outstanding figure in medicine deserves the closest attention.

The fight for a healthy lifestyle

The surgeon Uglov Fedor Grigorievich was engaged not only in healing the flesh. As a talented publicist writer, he wrote hundreds of articles in which he tried to heal people with a kind, comforting word.

In addition to exploits in the operating room, this man is also famous for his active struggle for a healthy lifestyle. He constantly spoke and wrote about the detrimental effects of nicotine, alcohol and drugs on the body, citing convincing arguments and facts. He believed that a person should not allow himself a single cigarette, not a single glass of vodka, imposing a severe taboo on such things. Compromises in this matter Uglov categorically did not allow.

The fight against total drunkenness also affected children. Uglov urged to stop giving babies yogurt to drink, which contains a certain percentage of alcohol and which, from an early age, involves babies in alcohol addiction. A massive media campaign has been launched on this issue.

A lot of journalistic works devoted to a healthy lifestyle came out from under his pen. The most famous of them: "Suicides", "Truth and Lies about Legal Drugs", "Captive of Illusions", "Trap for Russia", etc.

By the way, Fedor Grigorievich was convinced that the Russians before the revolution were not subject to drunkenness. Allegedly, they were drunk by the Jews in order to destroy the Russian nation. At the same time, the doctor did not consider himself an anti-Semite.

A little about the family

As noted above, Uglov Fedor first married in early youth to his classmate, who left him after typhus. But this marriage was not his only one.

The second wife of Uglov - Streltsova Emilia Viktorovna was thirty-two years younger than him. From two marriages, Fedor Grigorievich has daughters Tatyana and Elena and a son Grigory.

At the time of his death, the outstanding surgeon already had nine grandchildren, the same number of great-grandchildren and even two great-great-grandchildren! And he died of a heart attack on June 22, 2008. His remains are buried at the Nikolsky cemetery at the Alexander Nevsky Lavra.

Story text:

Russian medicine has suffered another heavy loss. Following Natalia Bekhtereva, the famous doctor, Academician Fyodor Uglov, passed away. It was he who invented the artificial heart valve, saved thousands of lives. His secret of longevity is simple - not a single cigarette, not a single gram of alcohol poison. He said that evil people do not live long.

He must have been the only one in the whole world. In his almost one hundred and four years, he consulted patients, monitored the progress of operations, and wrote scientific papers. Fedor Uglov entered the Guinness Book of Records as the oldest practicing surgeon in the world. He was already almost a hundred years old when he performed five operations a year. And what!

Colleagues recall: the most difficult case, a recurrence of a malignant tumor with damage to the lung and liver. Not every young surgeon will undertake such operations.

"But Fedor Grigorievich took it. The operation took 5 hours. He performed it all - from the incision to the last suture - by himself. The operation was extremely successful. The patient recovered after such an extensive operation," says Vladimir Davydenko, an employee of the Department of Hospital Surgery of the State Medical University .

Fedor Uglov was born in a remote taiga village into a peasant family. I decided to become a doctor, and stubbornly walked towards my goal. Literally, on foot. “Suffice it to say that I traveled to the university for a whole month - by steamboat, by boat, on horseback and on foot 1100 km,” Fedor Grigorievich recalled.

He later said: perseverance is one of the most important qualities for a doctor. While honing the techniques of cupping blood vessels, the young doctor Fedor Uglov darned almost a thousand stockings - he stuffed his hand. He fought in the Finnish War, and when the Great Patriotic War was going on, he was the head of the surgical department of the hospital in Leningrad for all 900 days of the blockade. One of the first in the USSR, he successfully performed the most complex operations on the esophagus, for lung diseases, congenital and acquired heart defects.

“He had golden hands,” said Vladimir Grishchenko, head of the department of hospital surgery at the State Medical University. “He operated on these hands not quickly, but it turned out very well. Because every movement was honed. He never made comments to anyone during the operation. always calm."

Uglov said that the secret of longevity is very simple - it all depends on the lifestyle. "Two buckets of ice water - this is if you are unwell. But one is enough, but every morning. You have to move all the time, especially if you are unbearable. And not a single cigarette, not a gram of alcohol," said Fedor Uglov.

Few people know that he actively participated in the Gorbachev anti-alcohol campaign, wrote articles, lectured. He knew how to celebrate birthdays noisily and cheerfully, without alcohol on the table. He loved it when the house was full of guests, he fed them himself - shish kebabs and Siberian dishes.

"I can do everything. If necessary, I'll make you dumplings that you won't find in any canteen or restaurant!" - said Fedor Uglov.

Academician Uglov was baptized by his parents as a child, and he always - in the blockade, at the operating table, at the head of the medical institute - remained a believer. In his last book, "A Man Is Not a Century," he wrote the words that, probably, were the main principle of his life.

"Why does a person live on Earth? - To do good. Everything else follows from this. These words express the will of the Lord, set forth in detail in the commandments. By doing good to people, a person thereby fulfills them all."

Train "Akademik Fedor Uglov", a consultative and diagnostic center on wheels, began its work in January 2010. Its main purpose is to diagnose diseases and provide primary medical care to residents of villages and towns located along the East Siberian Railway.

"Academician Fedor Uglov" - the fifth "mobile hospital". The first such diagnostic centers appeared on Russian railways in 2004. Now trains operate in Vladimir, Omsk, Amur, Novosibirsk, Kemerovo and other regions.

The length of the routes of mobile clinics is 20 thousand kilometers. Medical trains serve more than 20 million people.

The train goes on a flight once a month for two weeks. At night, the train moves from station to station, during daylight hours it stops for work. Doctors can see up to 150 patients per day.

The economic efficiency of the project of mobile consultative and diagnostic centers has already been proven by experts. “Up to 170 million rubles are spent on the creation of each medical train. The annual maintenance of the center costs 27 million. For comparison, the construction of a typical clinic alone costs 200 million,” says a press release from Russian Railways.

The heart of Fedor Grigorievich Uglov kept a lot of scars - from pain for patients. However, even at the age of 100, he was still working, he was cheerful and energetic, he drove a car, picked mushrooms, and doused himself with cold water. And he always lived by the principle: the main thing is to do good to people ...

Arranging a meeting with Fedor Grigorievich Uglov, I felt awkward: wouldn't the interview tire such an elderly person? And now I'm sitting at his office and I hear quick and light young steps.

- Fedor Grigoryevich, without an elevator, can you easily go up to the fourth floor?

Why do I need an elevator? he asks slyly and stretches his hands forward: you see, they don’t tremble.

At the age of 100, he consulted at a medical institute, read without glasses, remembered many poems by heart, which he immediately read to me ...

Fedor Uglov - a boy from Siberia

He was born on the banks of the Lena, in the village of Chuguevo near Irkutsk. Father is an exiled locksmith, mother is a local peasant woman. It was she who taught her six children to a healthy lifestyle: do not smoke, do not drink alcohol, do not overeat, wipe yourself with snow and pour cold water on.

At the age of 14, Uglov remained in the family for the eldest: his mother often fell ill, and his father worked from morning to night. Fedya chopped wood, stoked the stove, in a light coat and shabby boots on a sled carried water in a barrel. In the summer he made hay for the cow.

But the time has come to think about the future profession, and Fedya decided: I will be a surgeon. He saw so many times how a zemstvo doctor literally pulled fellow villagers out of the other world!

In 1923, Uglov was going to Irkutsk to study. His father gave him a free waterman's ticket (he worked on a ship) and 30 rubles: "I can't help anymore." And mother gathered a bundle with a meager breakfast.

“I traveled for three weeks,” Fedor Grigorievich recalled. - And on horseback, and on a steamer, and on a boat, and on foot I had to.

Fedor Uglov: never-ending illnesses

Fedor Uglov entered the medical faculty of the East Siberian University. The scholarship was six rubles, of which four and a half went to food - thin stew, and the rest to a rented room.

I was dizzy from hunger, but Fedor was forced to work as a paramedic. Malnutrition and overwork were not in vain: the body could not resist the infection, and Uglov fell ill with typhus.

For 24 whole days he was unconscious on the verge of life and death, suffered blood poisoning, severe inflammation of the middle ear ... And then he was struck down by typhoid fever. The patient was cared for by his wife Verochka, with whom he studied in the same group. I took a closer look at her in my first year: intelligent, educated, well-read, and in the third they got married.

To improve their health, the couple decided to change the climate and transferred to Saratov University. We received diplomas and together with our little daughter Tatyana went to work in the village of Kislovka on the Volga.

However, the diseases still did not recede, and the Uglovs moved to warmer climes - to Abkhazia. Alas, the south did not help either: Fedor caught a tropical fever ...

But even in the most difficult days, he continued to dream about science. After thinking, the Uglovs packed their things and went to Leningrad.

After an internship at the Mechnikov hospital, Fedor volunteered to go to his native Kirensk. He worked there as a surgeon for 4 years: he went to calls both at night and on weekends, performed a variety of operations, and Vera assisted him.

In 1937 (by that time, the couple had two more daughters, Edita and Elena).

The corners returned to the city on the Neva. Fedor Grigoryevich entered graduate school, defended a Candidate's and then a doctoral dissertation. For 40 years he headed the Department of Hospital Surgery at the First Medical Institute, founded the Research Institute of Pulmonology, which became the leading one in the country.

Fedor Grigorievich Uglov: ten thousand operations

During his life, Fedor Uglov performed about ten thousand operations - on the heart, lungs, esophagus, many are absolutely unique.

Uglov also operated under extreme conditions: in a medical battalion on the Finnish front, under bombing in a hospital in besieged Leningrad, where he was the head of the surgical department ....

Academician Fedor Uglov received many titles and awards. But perhaps most of all in his life he valued the gratitude of his patients. Letters came to him in batches.

Once, leading surgeons from all over the world attended his operation in his native Leningrad First Med: Indian, Yugoslav, Canadian, Americans, including the famous cardiac surgeon Michael DeBakey.

After the operation, they applauded the skill of the surgeon. His seam was called silk, and his hands were called magic. DeBakey later admitted that he studied under the Russian surgeon Uglov, calling him a national treasure and Gagarin from medicine.

And he is known to us not only as a surgeon, but also as a writer - with his books “A Man Among People”, “A Surgeon's Heart”, “A Man Has a Little Age”, “Advice from a 100-Year-Old Surgeon” and other works.

To keep the body and soul young

Fedor Uglov passed away at the age of 104. What helped him stay in shape all his life, overcome illnesses, work hard?

At home, Fedor Grigorievich had a horizontal bar, gymnastic rings. In his youth, he was engaged in French wrestling and even performed in fights for the public. I've been doused with ice water all my life.

The unshakable rule in nutrition is to finish the meal slightly hungry, and from the dining table to go to the worker, and not to the sofa. Uglov was an enemy of tobacco and alcohol, and until the last days of his life he headed the Union of Struggle for People's Sobriety.

He also believed that his family gave him longevity. Uglov was married twice, and both times happily.

With their first wife, Vera Mikhailovna, they broke up after the war, and Fedor Grigorievich was very upset by this break. With the second, Emilia Viktorovna, also a physician, he met in a sanatorium in Essentuki.

She was 28, he was 60. But he looked 40, and both did not feel the difference in age ... When a son was born in the family, Uglov was already 66 years old. He was a wonderful father: despite being busy, he came from Leningrad to the dacha in Komarovo to bathe little Grishenka ...

Fedor Grigoryevich was the father of five children, the grandfather of eight grandchildren, he had nine great-grandchildren and two great-great-grandchildren. Son Gregory graduated from the conservatory, became a conductor.

I was lucky to somehow visit their family dacha in Komarovo. Here Fedor Grigorievich walked with his wife along the coast of the Gulf of Finland, picked mushrooms, and then salted them. He himself sculpted dumplings, and Emilia Viktorovna treated the guests with delicious pies.

Uglov even showed the "legendary" bucket from which he poured himself every day on the street in summer and winter. He worked in the garden, went skiing. And until the last days, together with Emilia Viktorovna, he worked on supplementing his books.

... He sincerely did not understand why people drink "for fun."

“We are a family and have so much fun. We gather at the table, play music, sing romances, read poetry, and in a clear voice sang a love romance with a soulful voice ...
