Abstract
This paper describes a case in which a young woman's two lower limbs were crushed and amputated from the upper part of the thighs by a train. She was in serious hypovolemic shock at the time. With rapid infusion of intravenous fluids, she recovered from shock quickly, avoiding acute renal failure and ARDS. Heterotopic transplantation was performed. Two years later, the limb which had undergone heterotopic transplantation had partly restored function.
