Primul transplant de mana reusit

The 26-year-old from Yuba City, Calif., underwent transplant surgery at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center, a 14-hour procedure that began just before midnight on March 4 and concluded at 2:30 p.m. the next day.

“It has been surreal to see that I have a hand again, and be able to wiggle my fingers. My 6-year-old daughter has never seen me with a hand,” said Fennell, a single mother. “She looked at it, touched it and said it was ‘cool.’ “

Fennell was discharged from the hospital April 8 and will continue to stay near UCLA for two months for monitoring and occupational therapy.

  1. Foarte tare. Sper sa nu ajung niciodata in situatia ei, desi s-a terminat cu happy-end.

  2. parca se facusera progrese si in privinta transplantului la creier in urma cu ceva timp, dar fusesera blocate datorita “moralitatii”
