Athletistic/ Figure Skating. Recently, the tragedy happened to the Olympic champion in figure skating. In January, he was admitted to hospital with pneumonia. Following treatment with mechanical ventilation, he developed necrosis. This led to the amputation of his hands and one of his feet. Prosthetist Maxim Lyashko said whether it would be possible for Roman Kostomarov to choose such prostheses that would allow him to continue figure skating.
– Modern technologies make it possible to restore the activity of a person who, for one reason or another, has lost limbs. Technology doesn’t stand still, so technically prostheses can even help athletes participate in physical activity. For figure skating, of course, it will be difficult to train and pick up prostheses, but it is possible, – Sport24 quotes Lyashko.
