WENZHOU - A two-year-eight-month-old girl rescued about 21 hours after a deadly high-speed train crash in east China's Zhejiang Province probably will not lose her left leg, said her doctor Tuesday.
"Currently, the hospital doesn't intend to perform an amputation," Chen Xinglong, who is in charge of the girl's treatment at the No.2 Hospital Attached to the Wenzhou Medical College, said at a news conference on Tuesday morning.
The doctors previously said the girl, Xiang Weiyi, possibly faced the amputation for poor blood circulation in her lower left leg.
The train crash happened late Saturday near the city of Zhenzhou when train D301 rear-ended train D3115, leaving at least 39 people dead and 192 others injured.
