Doctors treat a boy who had his arm reattached at the affiliated TCM hospital of Xinjiang Medical University in Urumqi, Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region, on May 4. ZHANG WANDE/FOR CHINA DAILY

A news conference was held by the Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region on Tuesday to commend doctors, police officers and other people that helped to save the severed arm of a 7-year-old boy a few days ago.

On the afternoon of April 30, the Uygur boy's right arm was cut off accidentally by a tractor mechanism in Hotan prefecture's Kumairik village. Surgery was required within eight hours to save it.

Dozens of people in different positions in society made a coordinated effort to send the injured boy to the hospital of traditional Chinese medicine affiliated with Xinjiang Medical University in Urumqi to have surgery to reattach and repair the arm. The last flight to Urumqi — China Southern Airlines Flight CZ6820 — was stopped on the runway and sent back to the terminal pick up the boy. He arrived at the hospital in time and his severed limb was successfully reattached. Broken bone fragments were realigned.

At the news conference, Arkin Rajap, a doctor at a local hospital in Hotan prefecture; Izhar Mamtimin, a police officer who escorted the boy's ambulance; Zhao Yan, the airliner's chief steward who cared for the boy during the flight; Li Li, an orthopedic surgeon at the TCM hospital who performed the operation; and a number of other people involved in the rescue were commended for their efforts.

Reminds me of the girl that was in need of some experimental drug within a day or so or she'd die and the Germans IIRC sent it out on an F-104 jet because it was far away

The distance of this journey is 1,400 kilimeters, over half Europe, but every life is worth this massive effort.

This little boy is recovering well, nice to see a good result. The whole transport, surgery and treatment was all for free.

他的右臂能举到耳边, 还能捡起玻璃球.
Now he can raise his hurt arm to his ears and pick up glass balls.

Thanks for sharing, I’ll definitely watch this later in the evening

It also shows that hospitals in small villages and towns in southern Xinjiang are still not capable of performing complex surgeries and operations, this needs to be improved. Urumqi's hospitals and medical professionals are among the top class in the world.

Western media will never report such stories about Xinjiang. I wonder any Xinjiang's neighboring countries and regions in central and south Asia would ever take such an effort to save a village boy's arm.

He should have received a bionic arm

He should have received a bionic arm

Is that better than his flesh and blood own arm?

 

[KAL-EL]

Is that better than his flesh and blood own arm?

With the proper enhancements that the arm would provide, in some ways it would be better

But yes, flesh and blood is certainly the first and best choice if possible

Can't report it if international reporters can't be there to cover it.

They are there, spinning lies

 

[Hamartia Antidote]

They are there, spinning lies

Well so is China

 

[beijingwalker]

Well so is China

because they are not "concentration camps", only Germany and US had concentration camps, and why you claim that western reporters are not in Xinjiang? Are you deliberately lying?
