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.

。    8月26日讯 天空体育最新消息，摩纳哥正有意引进热刺中场大将萨尔。为防范拉明·卡马拉离队，摩纳哥已提前在市场上寻觅新的中场人选。据此前相关报道，在热刺夏窗引进托纳利和M费之后，萨尔可能被允许离队，英超竞争对手也对这位23岁球员的潜在交易感兴趣。

二 | 但摩纳哥率先对萨尔采取了行动，不过他们考虑的是租借形式，而热刺更希望以永久转会的方式出售这位标价3500万英镑的中场球员。萨尔因伤缺席了赛季首轮比赛，他是热刺可能考虑出售的球员之一，以收回部分今夏在其他球员身上的投资。除了托纳利和M费，热刺还在上一个冬窗引进了加拉格尔。本坦库尔和阿奇·格雷也能出任中场中路，这限制了萨尔的机会。2022年萨尔从梅斯加盟热刺时年仅十几岁，转会费约为1450万英镑，此后他在孔蒂和波斯特科格鲁麾下逐渐确立了一线队球员地位。上赛季热刺夺得17年来首座冠军奖杯，萨尔在欧联杯决赛战胜曼联的比赛中首发出场。上赛季他在英超出场13次首发、13次替补登场，但德泽尔比的到来可能促使他离队。
