Hand of Hope:
Arnas Samuel, who was diagnosed with spina bifida, a malformation that leaves no hope of survival, unless the use of an intrauterine intervention.
Dr. Bruner, after extensive research carried out in the Medical Center of Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee, announces that could make it, with the baby still in the maternal uterus.
During surgery the surgeon did a normal Caesarean, a small incision through the uterus which to operate the small Samuel.
Dr. Bruner was completing the intervention, which had gone well, when Samuel, through the cut, leaned his tiny little hand and attacked the doctor's finger amazed.
The New York Times named the photo "Hand of Hope" .

Mano della Speranza:
Samuel Arnas, a cui fu diagnosticata la spina bífida, una malformazione che non lascia speranza di sopravvivenza, a meno di ricorrere a un intervento intrauterino.
Il Dr. Bruner, dopo numerose ricerche effettuate nel Centro Medico Universitario di Vanderbilt, a Nashville, nel Tennessee, annunció che avrebbe potuto compiere tale intervento, con il bimbo ancora nell' utero materno.
Durante l' intervento il chirurgo fece un normale taglio cesareo, estrasse l' utero e vi praticò una piccola incisione attraverso la quale operare il piccolo Samuel.
Il Dr. Bruner stava completando l' intervento, che era andato bene, quando Samuel, attraverso il taglio praticato, sporse la sua piccolissima manina e si attaccò al dito del medico stupefatto.
Il New York Times intitolò la foto "Hand of Hope" (Mano della speranza).

  • I was born with the most severe degree of Spina Bifida as early as December 10th 1982 and I was born the normal way and operated within the first 24hours of my life. Today I live in my own apartment, pay my own bills and get along just find. I'm on welfare because of chronic pain that makes it impossible for me to hold down a normal job, but other than that, I have a perfectly good life so please change the text you've written becaue it is perfectly possible to live a good life with SpinaBifida!

  • Il nome corretto è Armas (con la M invece che la N). Nel video è corretto, nella descrizione sotto no. Probabilmente hai fatto copia-incolla perchè molti siti hanno questo errorino

  • This is a lovely video. However, my friend, who is now 76 years old, was born with spina bifida and is still alive and well. This is not a fatal condition. However, it is nevertheless miraculous that he operated on the baby in utero.

  • id be willing to bet he put that in the txt to make the miracle that much more "miraculous"

  • @azadarham: are you sure about this? generally, while posting something against whats given, a substantiation through a reliable link would be helpful.

  • ke piccolo dolce

  • "no hope of survival" - that line really upsets me. A person born with Spina Bifida has just as much hope of survival as a perfectly healthy child. I beg that you change that line, as it is ignorant and unneeded. Spread awareness, not ignorance.

  • for all the poeple who say that he/she nees to change text needs to know that this is also known as an urban legend!

  • A malformation that leaves no hope of survival? Where do you even read this crap?
