Surgeons in the UK have saved a man’s amputated hand by a rather unusual method.

The limb was left dangling by a sliver of flesh and bone after carpenter Anthony Lelliott sliced through it with a power saw.

Thankfully, Consultant plastic surgeon Roger Adlard was on call when the patient was brought to the hospital and he joined Tom Dunne to tell him all about it
