Two 50-something senior doctors got into a lover's brawl over a nurse at a hospital in China which ended with one of them in the intensive care unit (ICU) which he runs.
The fight between the pair erupted on July 18 over a 27-year-old nurse who works at the same hospital.
It involved the director of the department of stomatology at Wuxi People's Hospital, Jiangsu province in eastern China and his colleague, the director of the same hospital's emergency department.
They came to blows out of jealousy after discovering that they were both dating the nurse simultaneously, the Xiaoxiang Morning Herald reported.
The emergency department's director, surnamed Xu, suffered serious injured to his head, neck and right hand.
Xu, who is a 50-year-old divorcee, was first sent to his hospital's orthopaedics department for surgery on an injured finger before being transferred to the ICU he heads up.
According to online chat records of colleagues, the nurse was dating them both at the same time without letting them know about the existence of the other.
