Due to this, people who have lost limbs will be able to recognize the size and rigidity of objects.

On April 21, doctor Valeria Zaletskaya announced that hand transplants in Russia are carried out within the framework of the compulsory medical insurance system, but access to surgery is limited by strict medical criteria and long-term patient selection. According to the specialist, the main indication for surgery is the inability to restore the lost limb by other methods. Most often, we are talking about amputation of both arms or the dominant arm at a level not higher than the distal third of the forearm, as well as severe hand injuries.
