"This is really devastating, because when you see a young boy, from 21 to 24 years, without a foot, without lower leg, you realize that he is although he is alive, but all his life should wear a prosthesis," Mialkkovsky said. According to him, the war leaves a lot of people with disabilities.
The publication writes that the beginning of Ukraine's counter -offensive has dramatically increased Patients of Myalkovsky in Zaporozhye. Previously, he could have carried out planned operations. Now he can only treat ball wounds, extract fragments from the wounded tissues and try to save the limbs torn by mines. Every day, he conducts three to four large operations and several small operations, mainly treating Ukrainian soldiers evacuated from field hospitals and battles.
Myalkovsky told reporters that he translated a recent medical training organized by American volunteers when he was called for surgery. He joined another doctor who desperately tried to save the young victim of a mines. The young man had severe injuries of both legs. The publication writes that while the doctors worked, the patient's life performance has deteriorated, and Myalkovsky had to make a decision in a second. Choosing a life rather than a limb, he removed both legs in 10 minutes.
