World's first double arm transplant


Aug. 01 - Six years after losing his arms in an industrial accident on a farm, a 54-year-old man undergoes the world's first double arm transplant.

The man had tried and failed to use artificial limbs before he approached a doctor at the university clinic Rechts der Isar in the southern German city of Munich.

No doubt you find them edible, the staff and snakes, symbols of Medicine, you know. They do not allow others to remove arms, they put them in prison, but the surgeons have free licence to put them where they will (with appropriate consent, of course.
