The 'Guinea Pig Club' has been described as the most exclusive club in the world, but the entrance fee is something most men would care not to pay, and the conditions of membership are arduous in the extreme. The Guinea Pig Club was formed in July 1941 to support aircrew who were undergoing reconstructive plastic surgery after receiving burn injuries in the Second World War. This paper will explore the novel surgical techniques employed to treat the Guinea Pig Club members, their experiences at the hospital and their lives after the war and how Sir Archibald McIndoe and the Guinea Pig club members revolutionised burns plastic surgery as we know it today.
“豚鼠俱乐部”被描述为世界上最独特的俱乐部,但它的入会费是大多数男性都不愿意支付的,而且会员的条件极其艰苦。豚鼠俱乐部成立于 1941 年 7 月,旨在为在第二次世界大战中因烧伤而接受整形手术的机组人员提供支持。本文将探讨用于治疗豚鼠俱乐部成员的新颖手术技术、他们在医院的经历以及战后的生活,以及阿奇博尔德·麦金托什爵士和豚鼠俱乐部成员如何彻底改变了我们今天所知道的烧伤整形手术。
