Man receives new hands amputated rare transplant

A man of 65 years of age with all four limbs amputated received two new hands in a rare double transplantation, said Friday the Brigham Hospital in Boston, USA. A team of more than 40 doctors, nurses and other staff annexed the hands of Richard Mangino during a procedure that lasted 12 hours last week. Mangino said he is to adapt gradually to the new hands and now will not have to "work miracles"
