Continuing the recent trend of degeneration on my blog (tomorrow I promise I'll get something training-related up, really), I'm happy to say that modern medicine has performed the first successful arm transplant. Now, details are pretty sketchy in this pop-news story linked below, but you better believe I'm going to look for more info on this. After dissecting the arm in gross anatomy and seeing all of the muscles, nerves, and blood supply that's involved, it had to be pretty hard to line all of those up in working fashion on top of doing the bone fusion. Next step is keeping the arm from being rejected, which should be an equally challenging task. Still, hats off.
With the obscenely high chance of being un-PC, I wonder what
Oscar Pistorius is thinking about this? ("Shit...")
