In any universe where vampire powers include rapid healing, it seems like it would be challenging to perform surgery, especially elective, on them.

    Silver-plated scalpel and needles, I guess.

    I don't have a deep knowledge of vampire mythology, but in what I have read, silver inflicted injuries simply never heal ... But I guess most of those stories about vampire slaying, so maybe the monster just didn't stick around long enough to find out.

    Well shit, now I need a fanfic about a medical research trial on the usage of silver in vampire surgery. It'd be hard to get ethical approval from a board of vampires though if it's believed to be that they never heal, so... idk, vampire rats, first?
