The "Guinea Pig Club" was formed in 1941 by a group of airmen who had sustained grievous injuries--mostly serious burns of the hands and face--and been treated by a team of plastic surgeons led by a remarkable New Zealander, Archibald McIndoe, at the Queen Victoria Hospital at East Grinstead in England. The most senior "Guinea Pig" was Tom Gleave, a fighter pilot who had been shot down during the Battle of Britain, and who carried out his duties as "Chief Guinea Pig" until his death in June 1993. This paper describes Tom Gleave's arrival at the Queen Victoria Hospital, and the formation and development of The Guinea Pig Club.
“豚鼠俱乐部”于1941年由一群空军人员组建而成,这些人遭受了严重伤害——大多是手部和面部的重度烧伤——并在英国东格林斯特德维多利亚女王医院接受了由杰出的新西兰人阿奇博尔德·麦金杜带领的整形外科团队的治疗。最资深的“豚鼠”是汤姆·格利夫,一名在不列颠之战中被击落的战斗机飞行员,他一直履行“首席豚鼠”的职责,直到1993年6月去世。本文描述了汤姆·格利夫抵达维多利亚女王医院的情况,以及“豚鼠俱乐部”的组建和发展历程。
