After 13 hours of in theatre, surgeons said, they managed to piece the unfortunate man’s hand back together. Dr Siritattamrong, an orthopaedic hand and reconstructive surgeon, said: 'It upset me a little bit when the patient asked me about his index finger. 'The patient demand his perfect hand back and I promised him that he will be able to grab things again.' However, due to an embolism had to abandon the tip of the index finger as it could have caused the whole procedure to fail.
