Surgeon Aids Stricken Worker in High Mou ntain Rescue
A surgeon ascended a metal structure to treat a dislocated worker who was trapped after an accident. Both arms were disabled and descent was impossible except by ladders. The doctor removed his outer garments and began a risky ascent while a helper carried the surgical kit. The worker recovered enough to descend and return home.
