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 Russian Academy 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 hands. 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, he last days kept 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 harmful effects of nicotine, alcohol and drugs on the body, giving 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 kefir to babies, containing a certain percentage of alcohol and with early years involving children in alcohol dependence. A massive media campaign has been launched on this issue.

From his pen came a lot of publicistic works devoted to healthy lifestyle life. 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.

For the uncompromising struggle against the alcohol mafia, against the propagandists of the anti-scientific false theory of the "culture of drinking and drunkenness" (it is it that is aimed at soldering young people and children), the authorities tried to illegally hide the scientist in a psychiatric hospital, but the public miraculously defended the hero-academician.

Academician F.G. UGLOV and Orthodoxy

What is the secret of active longevity? In one of the interviews, Fedor Grigoryevich said this about himself: “I am a deeply religious person and was brought up in a religious family. I am convinced that without faith there can be no high morality and spiritually healthy people.”

When the revolution began, the future academician was 13 years old. It became more difficult to go to the temple, and I had to pray for the most part Houses. Young Fedor never participated in anti-religious events. "We knew that any mockery of God is a grave sin. And in general, in Siberia, it seems to me, this was less. Believers were not mocked. But still, fewer people began to go to the temple, and then hooliganism began, and the temple was closed. I've been through a lot in my life, but a spark of faith in my soul has always helped me and saved me in difficult times».

In a large Uglov family - a worker father, a peasant mother - it was six children. Came out of it two teachers, one engineer, an ophthalmologist and an academic surgeon. “How could my parents, without God and the Church, lay in us such a strong moral core?! Having already become a father and grandfather, I was convinced that only in faith can a person in his entirety be able to manifest and realize himself.

The mother of Fyodor Grigoryevich, a simple peasant woman, was distinguished by a high internal culture, exactingness towards herself and active kindness to others. One day she told her son: "Try to do as much good as possible and don't expect immediate gratitude from people." All his life he strove to follow the maternal principle. He did not pursue fame and success, tried to do his job honestly, conscientiously helped patients. Uglov liked to repeat that the doctor was sent to the sick from God and must treat him with God's help . He said: “There are no trifles in surgery. Therefore, the surgeon is always obliged to do everything with such tender care, as if in front of him is a close and beloved person. I have always responded with my heart to human misfortune, which is probably why God still gives me the opportunity to do business that makes up the meaning of my life.
The secret of longevity
Having stepped over a century-old milestone, but retaining clarity of thought and efficiency, Fyodor Grigoryevich was often asked how he manages to do this. In his famous book The Surgeon's Heart, the scientist outlines several principles, the observance of which will help preserve moral and physical health: “The main commandment: do good and do not demand that you be immediately answered in the same way. You did good and forgot about it. But it will return to you - just when you will especially need it. Do no harm to other people, for the evil you have done will surely return to you, multiplied many times over. If you want to preserve life and health for many years, follow the basic requirements of a healthy life. Any work - physical and mental - is useful for a person. It is desirable to combine them at least to a small extent. Thus, the harmony of the personality is created.

“He was an amazing person, I don’t know another like him,” says Emilia Uglova, wife of Fedor Grigorievich. - Efficient, talented, smart, strong, worthy. He always worked hard, saying that work helps to cope with troubles and illnesses. Fedor had excellent natural gifts from God: gentle hands, a delicate instinct for a doctor, he could accurately diagnose tumors during examination. In the foreign press there was an article “Applause in the operating room”. During the medical symposium, foreign surgeons watched how he operated: deftly, artistically. ... He seemed to press time, never wasted it in vain. He managed to do a lot of things in a day, he could write a scientific article in one evening. Rest for him consisted in changing activities. When his head was tired of mental work, he started something then to do housework. If we were in the country, then he removed the snow, he liked to work on the ground.

At the All-Union Conference on Combating Alcoholism in 1981, Fyodor Grigoryevich's report “Medical and social consequences of drinking alcohol in the USSR” produced the effect of an exploding bomb. Authorities called Uglov a "crazy academic" and banned from publishing his work. But there were patriots who recorded the report on a tape recorder and printed it. With this began the spread among the masses true information about alcohol. Until his death, Fedor Grigoryevich was the head of the Union of Struggle for People's Sobriety (sbnt.ru). His first deputy, Vladimir Zhdanov, continued the generally useful sober work, both of them emphasized the necessity and importance of Orthodoxy (even despite criticism of fellow atheists). Personally, I first heard the well-known phrase of the Christian apologist Tertullian (that the soul is by nature a Christian) precisely in the recording of the speech of Vladimir Zhdanov, while still unbaptized, and many years later again - at Orthodox missionary courses. The first deputy chairman of the SBNT and the publisher of sober newspapers (Companion, Help, Sobriety) Tarkhanov Grigory Ivanovich is also Orthodox. The charter of the SBNT directly says: “9.5. The organization belongs with respect to Orthodoxy” and “9.6. The organization has a negative attitude towards the newly-minted religious movements.” After talking with Fyodor Uglov and Vladimir Zhdanov, people not only stopped poisoning themselves with alcoholic products, but were baptized, churched, some took the dignity. Fyodor Uglov associated great hopes for the revival of sobriety in Russia with the Orthodox Church. In the article “Orthodoxy and the Spiritual Revival of the Russian People,” written in 1997, Uglov emphasizes: “We must understand that the hallmark of our spiritual life has been and is catholicity, and this is the unity of the people in the performance of Christian duty and selflessness, in the pursuit of what is possible. approaching God. In prayer we say: "Deliver us from the evil one ..." Not me, but us, this is a nationwide and common prayer. We pray for the whole people, we, Russian Orthodox people, form a single whole. And this is our strength and invincibility " .
Fedor Grigorievich said that his most memorable patient was Metropolitan John (Snychev). One year before his death Bishop John was treated in a clinic run by Uglov. Fyodor Grigoryevich wrote about his conversations with the metropolitan: “But if every person without exception needs repentance and salvation, then why can’t the same be said about an entire people, nation, state? A thought once struck me. Isn't it that we deviated from the path indicated by God, the root of all our troubles, the reason for the ruin and disorder of the richest country in the world? Expressing my guess to Vladyka John, I did not yet know that I could hardly find a more enlightened interlocutor. He answered that, for sure, every nation is like a child, spontaneous, with its own unique character, and if Christ's preaching is weakened, ... every nation can be plunged into the abyss of self-will and disorder. And Russian - all the more so, because he is trusting and simple-hearted. But it is precisely these qualities, combined with kindness, faith in the highest justice, responsiveness, non-possessiveness, and a penchant for spiritual contemplation, that make him the most receptive to accepting Divine revelation.”
Everlasting memory
Fedor Uglov is buried at the Nikolsky cemetery of the Alexander Nevsky Lavra. A bronze bust was solemnly installed on the surgeon's grave. Also in St. Petersburg, a monument was erected in the square of Fedor Uglov at the intersection of X-ray and Lev Tolstoy streets, directly in front of the hospital surgery clinic of the current First St. Petersburg State Medical University (PSPbGMU) named after academician I.P. Pavlova. The sculpture is made of bronze. It is a collective image of a doctor bending over a patient. The words of Academician Fyodor Uglov are inscribed on the pedestal: "The work of a doctor is the highest degree humane and noble". At the opening, it was noted that it was Fedor Uglov who created and headed the Union of Struggle for People's Sobriety, thanks to which even today generations of people born in 85-89 support the demography of the country. Grandson of Academician Fedor Uglov, Corresponding Member of the Russian Academy of Sciences Mikhail Silnikov noted, that the renaming of the square and the installation of the monument were carried out by decision of the government of St. Petersburg and with the support of the medical community.

“Professor Uglov is your national treasure. He took surgery as high as you took space exploration.” Michael Ellis DeBakey, American cardiac surgeon

« Academician Uglov remains in memory as an outstanding personality of historical proportions, we bowed, equaled the surgeon by the grace of God », Chairman of the City Committee of St. Petersburg for Health Prof. Yuri Shcherbuk

Fedor Uglov: "In Orthodox faith we were raised from childhood. Father, older brother, sister - all sang in the church choir. We visited the church, confessed, took communion, at school we were taught the Law of God. I even made friends with the children of Father George, who served in our church.”

Fedor Uglov: “I declare with all responsibility: our people are deliberately soldered. There are reasons for this. On the one hand, a drunk person becomes obedient and does not rebel, and on the other hand, the enrichment of the alcohol mafia. These people do not need a sober Russian person, they oppose this in every possible way. Remember the "dry law" introduced in Russia in 1914? So, back in 1911, Baron Ginzburg, alarmed by the growth of the anti-alcohol movement, said in his circle: “I get more gold from the supply of vodka for state-owned wine shops, from industrial distillation than from all my gold mines. Therefore, the state-owned sale of drinks must be preserved and justified at all costs in the eyes of the notorious public opinion.

Interested persons tried to "scientifically" prove that the use of "moderate" doses of alcohol is a normal phenomenon, that, for example, a tea glass of forty-proof vodka is completely harmless in daily use. In 1912, they turned to academician I.P. Pavlov with a request to give an opinion on the project to create a laboratory to justify the harmlessness of moderate alcohol consumption. The scientist replied: “An institute that sets itself the indispensable goal of discovering the harmless use of alcohol does not justly have the right to be called or considered scientific ... All those who care about state funds, the health of the population and the dignity of Russian science have the duty to raise their voice against the establishment of the institute such a name..." A similar review of this venture was given by Professor A. Vvedensky.
