In the hospital. Rydygier in Kraków, a press conference was introduced, at which 21-year-old Maksymilian was presented, who had his cut-off hand rescued. The circumstances are dramatic and the operation was a challenge.
Recall, the young man lost his seat on September 21 in the solution brutal robbery. Ok. time. 22 in Leżajsk (Podkarpackie Province) at ul. Lime, when he went on a scooter, rode his bike, rode to a motorcyclist, rode, cut off his left package and drove away. The wounded man called for help himself, because there were no witnesses to the events. The police paid the child of Marek T., who was later suspected of the robbery, 43. It is still unknown why the click occurred.
The wounded 21-year-old was transported to the Kraków state of Rydygier, where a team of surgeons sewed to his hands during the night. On Wednesday, September 22, the president of the Krakow city of Rydygier, Dr. Artur Asztabski told journalists that it was one of the most difficult operations we have at the facility. Complicated, it takes 6.5 hours.
Yesterday a press conference was held at the hospital, where the success was shared, Dr. Anna Chrapusta, who managed the search, talked about finding the problem of the sophisticated material, and the patient himself had already left the facility, gave his saved hand.
– the next case like replantation (from the future hand – editor’s note) in a given patient who is a witness of the situation that will occur in terms of the future event and situation, I call replantation – said Dr. Anna Snapust.
During the operation, even three anaesthesiologists supervised Maksymilian’s condition – said Dr. Snorer.
– You need souvenirs that these are treatments, activities that must be performed, activities and activities not to worsen the patient’s condition – exercises. She was delighted with the successful operation. – We managed to successfully apply and ours is going home today – she checked.
You still have your bandaged one, also Maksymilian himself. – I feel very good. Hand sewn on. Everything is in place. It hurts a little, but it’s okay. I can start with my fingers – said the patient.
Dr. Charapusta talked about the importance of a correct solution that ensures the partial operation and operation of all emergency services. – Correctly assisting amputated parts is extremely important. This is a topic that we have addressed many times in the media in the last 10-15 years and we have every day to say that it is a topic that must be constantly presented not only to health care, but healing, to family members, that they are the first to have the opportunity or securing the amputated part – said the correction.
How to save a severed body part? – Don’t put it in ice!
She also emphasized that a common mistake in this case is laying or covering a lost organ with ice. – Ladies and gentlemen, it is extremely important that you do not use the amputated part – a finger or an hand with ice. In order not to put the amputated part into the freezer. Ideally, it should be wrapped in a damp gauze swab, what we have, and put it in a bag, and only now with this bag put in the house where there will be ice water. There may be ice from the refrigerator in the proportion of 3/4 of the volume of water, 1/4 of the volume of ice – the surgeon explained.
She insisted that the optimal temperature, which extended the journey, up to 4 degrees. – It is very important that the amputated part is not placed on ice, because then it may freeze during transport. The optimal temperature, which extends the month, is plus 4 ° and the solution I just described. To allow for an extension of the project implementation, she emphasized.
She also answered the question whether the sewn-on hand had regained its efficiency. – You can never start the procedure, it was immediately assumed that the hand would be fully functional. In the first place, we are fighting to break through the railroad and railroad railroad with the railroad to see that there was a queue to be replenished.
It doesn’t always work. The success for replantological surgeons is when the patient is able to perform their professional work – she said.
She emphasized that saving the 21-year-old’s hand to real success in replantology and talked about the difficulties that this procedure had caused. Surgeons had to sew both sparing hands and extensors, which required a different positioning of the hand being sewn. You also need to connect the arterial and vein for proper circulation. As you can see, it worked out, because Maksymilian was saying that he could use a saved hand, but to keep it functional, it obviously requires further rehabilitation. – After removing the wires, we will know that this rehabilitation or health care will be needed. 6 weeks after replantation, we can confirm a control photo that checks whether the bone fusion is correct and then the lesion will be removed – she added.
There is a story like a horror story happily. The 43-year-old suspected of the assault has already heard the charges. – He admitted the guilty party and submitted a detailed report – Krzysztof Ciechanowski, spokesman for the District Prosecutor’s Office in Rzeszów, told tvn24.pl. Male players were obliged to the testator at the level of health in the form of a disability, for which there was no more than 3 years in prison. He was chosen arrested.
