Patient with both legs severed at thigh level walks again after doctors perform rare replantation surgery in East China’s Jiangsu_我的网站

The patient, a 51-year-old surnamed Jiang, had both legs completely severed at the thighs in a machinery accident at a factory on December 2, 2024. A multidisciplinary team from the trauma orthopedics and joint surgery departments at Suzhou Ruihua Orthopedic Hospital, in East China's Jiangsu Province, worked through the night for nearly eight hours to reattach the two limbs, the report said.
Li Changsong, head of a trauma orthopedics team at the hospital, told the Yangtze Evening Post on Tuesday that Jiang can now walk indoors with a walker and manage most daily activities without assistance. Sensation in his lower limbs has also recovered to the area above his ankles.
"He is still recovering and is expected to gradually stop using crutches and eventually walk independently," Li was quoted as saying by the Yangtze Evening Post on Wednesday.
In March last year, shortly after the external fixators were removed from both legs, Jiang could already lift his legs freely while lying in bed. Sensation had returned as far down as the middle of his lower legs, and he was discharged from the hospital on March 5. His main goal at the time was to stand and walk again through rehabilitation, according to the report.
More than a year later, Jiang has moved from being confined to bed to lifting his legs and then standing and walking, the report said, noting that his rehabilitation is still ongoing.
The recovery process has not been without complications. Jiang developed localized skin necrosis after the operation and underwent flap reconstruction surgeries. He later required bone grafting and reinforced internal fixation of both femurs after severe open comminuted fractures resulted in femoral nonunion.
Li said Jiang is now in good overall condition, with his legs approximately equal in length.
"A novelty assessment conducted by the Jiangsu Institute of Medical Information confirmed this as the world's first case of replantation following the complete severing of both thighs," Li said.
Li said the case was considered a world first primarily because both legs were completely severed at thigh level simultaneously, an extremely rare injury. The hospital had previously accumulated extensive experience in replanting single limbs and lower legs, while its expertise in fracture fixation, vascular anastomosis and nerve repair provided an important technical foundation for the operation, according to the report.
Li did not give a timetable for when Jiang might be able to stop using a walker completely.
"Recovery varies from person to person. We still need to monitor his muscle strength, nerve sensation and fracture healing," Li said. Based on his current progress, however, Jiang's walking ability could continue to improve, the Yangtze Evening Post reported.

。 长山尾，黄渤海交界处。徐渭明 摄影 长岛，如一串宝石项链，挂在山东半岛和辽东半岛之间的海面上。曾经的军事要塞为长岛蒙上了神秘色彩，传说的“海上仙山”为长岛增添了些许诗意。 夏末去长岛，天气不燥，海鲜正好。 一乘上往长岛的船，便被翔集的海鸥包围。它们白羽黑梢，灰喙黄足，在碧空下划出自由的弧线，时而俯冲掠过浪尖，时而盘旋于船舷之侧，发出清越的鸣叫。抬头望去，鸥鸟与云影共舞，让人瞬间理解了何为“鸥波万里”。 徐渭明 摄影 到长岛，必须得看月牙湾。
二 | 这里没有细绵黄沙，却有天然晶亮的卵石铺满千米海滩。这份海浪亿万年雕琢打磨的温润玲珑，可谓世间少见。 阳光之下，彩石层层叠叠铺展蔓延，乳白似凝脂、浅红如玛瑙、苍青若翡翠，深浅纹理自然晕染，每一颗都独一无二。
三 | 海潮漫涌时，清水浸润石面，瞬间通透莹润，斑斓色彩尽数绽放，似散落海岸的细碎宝石。潮水退去，卵石洁净清亮，圆润无棱，藏着山海温柔的肌理。月牙湾的彩石，藏着长岛最纯粹的山海诗意，不事雕琢，却以浑然天成装点长岛独一份的浪漫与清灵。 徐渭明 摄影 长岛的风光，既有月牙湾彩石般的灵秀，也有黑山岛般的质朴，更有自带地质力量的雄奇。 从南长山岛的码头乘船，可以去黑山岛。黑山岛少了南北长山那般花哨热闹，却有着北方海岛的拙朴生气。岛上的村落依坡而建，石屋错落，小巷幽静，时光仿佛在此放慢了流速。石板路，黄石墙，海草房，咸风吹来的炊烟，老渔民望海发愣的神情，速写似的勾勒出海岛生活的本真。 渤海一号灯塔。徐渭明 摄影 黑山岛北端的龙爪山，则张扬着时光雕琢的苍劲。这里岸线险峻，石英岩海蚀崖似刀削斧劈，纹理清晰。五座临海绝壁并肩联结，向蓝绿的海面铺出层层高峻的石“浪”——海浪拍断崖，山海逐浪高。地质力量与苍茫时光的磨合，漫长缠绵，在长山列岛留下了许多奇崛。
四 | 长岛最有内涵的景致，当推“黄渤海分界”奇观。南长山岛南端，有一条向海面延伸出的狭长沙石滩，被称为长山尾。长山尾东侧，是黄海，盐度高、含沙少；西侧是渤海，黄河入海带进泥沙和淡水，海水盐度低。两海水体在此交汇，由于水文、温度与盐度的差异，色差分明。因而站在长山尾，有“左脚踏黄海、右脚入渤海”之说，让人顿生“一览沧溟小”的豪情。 徐渭明 摄影 其实，地理学上的黄渤海分界，取的是辽东半岛老铁山角到胶东半岛蓬莱角的连线，长山尾只是正好骑在分界线上。
五 | 到了长山，还得看一次灯塔夕阳，等一回海天彩霞。而我，恰好邂逅了一场浩大绚丽的夕色霞光。地点，当然在九丈崖。 徐渭明 摄影 那天，海风和畅，云开霞披。当夕阳落到海平面上，整片海空顿成熔化的金箔。
六 | 近前的“渤海1号”灯塔，被镀上一层暖橘色的柔光，素白的塔身与红色的塔顶在余晖中相映成趣。
七 | 海面上，归船剪影点点，沿着那道耀眼的金色波光缓缓靠拢过来。 夕阳西沉，整个渤海仿佛被点燃，天幕从绛紫、玫红一层层烧到橘金与明黄，晚云绸缎般铺展，又被晚风撕成流火的纹路。近海养殖筏架整齐的弧线浮在金红色的水面上，像上苍在大海上悄悄写下的诗行。
八 | 徐渭明 摄影 霞云渐隐，塔灯亮起，旋转的清光穿透渐暗的天色，与天边渐显的弦月彼此呼应。长岛开始从绚烂回归本色、回归沉静。这样的时刻，长岛的美便不再只有地质奇观或海天一色，有渔家烟火的温度，有灯塔恒久的守望，还有天地以盛大色彩昭示的壮阔情怀。返回，查看更多。
