At the moment he has not canceled the appointment of September 7 in Sanxenxo to collect a prize. It is his seventeenth operation
65 years of the first meeting between Don Juan Carlos and Doña Sofía in the 'Agamenón'
"It's a serious operation but he's calm." This phrase with which Pedro Campos would have commented in Sanxenxo the operation to which King Don Juan Carlos is subjected this Saturday in Madrid, gives some clue about the brief news issued by the Royal House about the monarch's cardiac intervention at the Quirón clinic from Pozuelo de Alarcón. Specifically, the operation to which the former King of Spain will be submitted this Saturday, as medical sources have explained to this newspaper, will be the placement of three bypasses . It is, therefore, an open heart operation and must remain a minimum of 10-11 days.
Dr. Alberto Forteza Gil , head of the Cardiac Surgery service of the Quirón de Pozuelo University Hospital (Madrid) and Cardiovascular Surgery of the Puerta de Hierro Hospital, will be in charge of performing this operation. Zarzuela sources consulted by this newspaper were sent to the information communicated in recent days -which will undergo a heart operation- without giving more details, but without denying this extreme and referring to the medical center, which will be responsible for informing the details once the intervention takes place.
Forteza is an expert in valvular repair surgery, aortic surgery, coronary surgery without extracorporeal circulation, heart transplantation, circulatory assistance systems and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy surgery.
As detailed by the hospital itself on its website, this surgery popularly known as bypass or coronary bridges "consists of taking blood distally to the site of occlusion through a series of ducts that are obtained from the patient. They are the arteries (left or right mammary and radial) or the saphenous vein, which are extracted from the patient's chest, arm or leg respectively. "
The truth is that it is evident that the King is calm, as his friend Pedro Campos assures. This extraordinary sailor, five times world champion and president of the Royal Nautical Club of Sanxenxo, competes with Don Juan Carlos at the helm, in the 'Bribón 500 Movistar', a 6-meter boat with which they have won one trophy after another, until proclaim again world champions the first week of August in Finland.
Campos is the one who has returned to Don Juan Carlos the illusion to sail and they do it in Sanxenxo waters where the King feels at ease, well received and among friends. There he spends many weekends and always stays at the house of Pedro Campos, a beautiful construction by the sea, relaxed and in family. On September 7, the crew of the 'Bribón 500 Movistar', with Don Juan Carlos in front, is summoned in Sanxenxo to receive the trophy as the best ship of the year at the Terras Gauda National Sailing Awards. "The call is still standing, nobody has told us that the King cancels his presence, they comment to LOC from the organization. It is logical that nothing is known about whether it comes or not, until knowing how the intervention went, but it is not ruled out nothing".
In June when it seems that the decision of this cardiac surgery was made, Don Juan Carlos had officially announced the same day 2 of that month, which left the institutional life. However, his presence in public events, such as sailing, bulls or his unexpected stay in Mallorca in July, where he even played football with Rafa Nadal's girlfriend, showed the tranquility of the Monarch.
On June 9, Don Juan Carlos congratulated Rafa Nadal in Paris after his 12th win in this tournament. As on other occasions, the tennis player celebrated the victory in one of the halls of the Intercontinental hotel in Paris. Don Juan Carlos stayed for dinner and spent that night in that hotel where he often stays. The Infanta Elena who had accompanied him during the game, returned that same afternoon to Madrid. She shouldn't be very worried about her father's health when she left him alone in France and returned home.
"If the doctors had the slightest doubt about his condition, they would not have let him go to Finland in August and also put himself in front of the ship where he competed for several days until he won," said King's race partners. On July 12, Don Juan Carlos and Doña Sofía, together with Infanta Elena, participated in the tribute in honor of the Spanish Navy at the Royal Nautical Club of Sanxenxo. The image conveyed family harmony and tranquility.
