A 51-year-old patient surnamed Jiang raises his legs after more than a year of treatment following an eight-hour operation at Suzhou Ruihua Orthopedic Hospital in 2024 to reattach both legs, which had been completely severed at the thighs. Photo: Yangtze Evening PostChinese doctors have completed what they called as the world's first replantation involving the complete severing of both legs at thigh level, with the patient now able to walk indoors using a walker following a nearly eight-hour operation, according to a recent report by the Yangtze Evening Post.
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.

二 | 狮门影业为即将上映的惊悚片《坠落2:死点》(Fall 2: Deadpoint)推出了一场前所未有的沉浸式放映——观众必须全程站在一块特制的“悬崖边缘”上观看整部电影,以此考验大家的耐力与胆量。该片是2022年生存惊悚片《坠落》的续集,定于9月2日在北美院线上映。

三 | 但在正式公映前,片方将于8月22日在洛杉矶举办两场特别放映(仅限受邀者参加)。据Metro UK报道,这一设计旨在让观众亲身体验“恐高症,以及《坠落2:死点》所定义的暴露感、脆弱感和求生欲”。如果观众在放映期间的任何时刻从这块特制边缘上掉落或主动走下来,他们的观影体验将立即终止。

四 | 《坠落2:死点》由斯派瑞格兄弟(迈克尔·斯派瑞格和彼得·斯派瑞格,曾执导《电锯惊魂8》)联合执导,主演哈里特·斯莱特和阿塞玛·托马斯饰演两名攀岩者,因山体滑坡被困在3000多英尺高空的一块脆弱木板上,为求生而奋力挣扎。汤姆·布里特尼也参演了该片。四年前,斯科特·曼执导的《坠落》讲述了一对闺蜜爬上2000英尺高的废弃信号塔后被困顶部的故事。两部影片均由曾制作柯里·巴克尔票房恐怖片《着迷》的同一制片公司打造。

五 | 这种“沉浸式极限观影”并非狮门影业首创。去年,该工作室为改编自斯蒂芬·金反乌托邦恐怖小说《漫漫长步》的电影举办特别放映时,要求观众在观影期间全程在跑步机上行走,速度需保持在每小时3英里(约4.8公里)。一旦停下或低于速度要求,就会被立刻“请出”放映厅。当时,狮门影业全球数字营销负责人布赖安娜·麦克尔罗伊在接受IndieWire采访时表示:“情感才是最难的部分。我们希望观众能代入角色的处境,看到大家与这个想法产生共鸣,真的非常令人兴奋。”她补充道:“这部电影在身体和情感上都极具冲击力,这正是我们创意灵感的来源。
