【 摘 要 】

The twentieth century saw the gradual disappearance of the heroic individual doctor and the emergence of specialities with distinct governance structures through colleges and societies. These defined training and issued qualifications. In our world, cardiothoracic surgery split from general surgery, pediatric surgery from general surgery and ear, nose and throat surgery emerged in parallel. The separation produced rapid advances in each field but, as an unexpected consequence, the disciplines grew apart, developing their own ways of working and their own tribal cultures. Our patients (and their conditions) did not recognize this, and they would find that the way in which their disease was treated varied widely–defined largely by the speciality with which they first came into contact.
