Dr. Oguz Basut from Türkiye operated on a young woman with a lung tumor when she started feeling strange and suffered a drop in her blood pressure due to food poisoning from the previous day.
Instead of stopping work, he asked his colleagues to apply an infusion to his right leg so he could continue the procedure sitting without leaving the patient.
The surgery was crucial because the tumor was located near an important facial nerve, so the doctor decided to proceed despite the discomfort.
"I was not able to stop the operation. "
The intravenous line in his foot helped stabilize it and within a few minutes, his blood pressure returned to normal.
When saving lives is a vocation.
