Abstract
As an example of the One Health connection between human and veterinary medicine, the story of the first surgical repair of blue baby syndrome is repeated to demonstrate how important dogs were in achieving major advances in human medicine. The role of Vivien Thomas as the surgical technician who developed the technical procedure for treatment of tetralogy of Fallot is included.
