RANCHI: In a rare and complicated surgical intervention, doctors of Rajendra Institute of Medical Sciences (RIMS) saved life of a six year old girl from Hazaribag who was brought to them with a two feet long iron rod that pierced her torso. The patient (Anisha) had accidentally fallen on an iron rod protruding out of a pillar on the terrace on Thursday afternoon. When she fell on the rod it pierced her back and came out from the abdomen injuring her intestine as well as spine lamina. Due to body weight the rod, which was already weak due to rust broke off.
