House cares more about the puzzle I'm wondering about that. He certainly wants us to believe that, but is it really true? I can remember him lying at the transplant committee during the Vogler arc to save the life of a young woman. He had already diagnosed her, there was no puzzle anymore. And he was risking his career.
In two big cases (Esther and the dead boy in S8) he does solve an old puzzle, but it's always a puzzle with a name and a face, and the final aim is always to save further lives, to make for those which were lost. Everyone knows about Wilson's "thank you for the death sentence" skills, but House's ability to find kind words describing to describe to a grieving father the corpse of his son have staid with me.
To me, this caring for patients in an insane way is a large part of the bond between House and Wilson. In this respect, the turning point in Transplant, the moment when Wilson starts going back to liking House, is when House pushes him to have a Wilson epiphany on how to convince the patient to accept treatment. Only House can do that.
