The first successful open-heart surgery was performed on July 9, 1893 by Chicago surgeon, Daniel Hale Williams. A man suffering from a chest wound from a stabbing was brought to Provident Hospital, where Dr. Williams repaired the lining of the heart and the patient fully recovered within two months.
