“MK”: figure skater Roman Kostomarov amputated the shins of both legs and the entire hand
There are new details about the operations carried out by the Olympic champion in figure skating Roman Kostomarov. They are reported by Moskovsky Komsomolets, citing sources in medical circles.
“First, both feet were amputated to Kostomarov, then the lower legs of both legs. They also amputated the entire hand,” said one source. Another source said that the doctors have not yet decided on the operation on the second arm of the athlete.
He noted that Kostomarov’s body was very weak, the athlete lost more than 50 kilograms. “When he regained consciousness, he exhausted everyone, figuratively speaking, in the sense of the entire medical staff. Yes, he drove everyone, asked him to wash his hair, and the nurse fed him ice cream, ”added the source.
Earlier, a Match TV source said that the 46-year-old athlete was conscious, and he had a tracheal tube removed (a catheter to maintain breathing – approx. “Tapes.ru”). The source of Izvestia said that the doctors changed the treatment regimen for Kostomarov and hope to soon restore the blood supply to the hands.
Kostomarov was hospitalized on 10 January. He was diagnosed with left-sided pneumonia in combination with influenza B. Telegram channels 112 and Mash reported that the skater had his left foot amputated, as well as several fingers on both hands.
