Apparently Doctors Do This in Order to Save the Limb
This is nuts, but there is actually medically necessary reason for this. I was reading that it's needed to keep the limb alive and flowing with blood.

Re: Apparently Doctors Do This in Order to Save the Limb
wow, great pictures. I'm wondering what they're going to do now... I cannot imagine a way where it gets in the old position again (ie reconstructing the thigh and all) |
