Dogs tore the hand of a 6-year-old boy in Primorye.
Off-leash dogs attacked a boy in Rudnaya Bay. The boy was unable to escape. A fisherman came running to the scream: he drove the dogs away, put the boy in the house and called an ambulance.
The child was taken to the Delangorsk hospital. There the doctors performed first aid. In addition to the wound, his brachial artery, the main vessel supplying the arm, was damaged. Without urgent help, within a few hours the tissue would begin to die, and the hand would be amputated.
The victim was then taken by air ambulance to Vladivostok Clinical Hospital No. 2. Vascular surgeons replaced the temporary shunt with a permanent one and reconstructed the artery with a section of the child's vein.
The boy has a long recovery ahead of him.
