Seven months after surgery, Tamil Nadu’s first bilateral hand transplant patient has started to tap a ball, use a mobile phone and drink water by holding a glass.
A resident of Dindigul, Narayanasamy, a mason, lost both hands in an electrocution in August 2015. In a surgery that lasted 13 hours, doctors transplanted two hands from a brain dead donor on Narayanasamy in February this year.
