An operation to simultaneously reattach an Australian boy's foot and both his hands after a freak basketball accident was a success with the boy's fingers and toes alive and pink, surgeons said on Monday.

Ten-year-old Terry Vo's hands and left foot were cut off when a brick wall supporting a basketball backboard gave way as he executed a slam dunk at a friend's birthday party in Perth, the Western Australian state capital, on Saturday.

The weight and force of the collapse, and the sharp brick edges and a broken metal rain gutter, cut Vo's three limbs just above the wrists and ankle.

2. Oh my! Thank heaven for good modern science!

It's amazing what they can do with limb reattachment these days.
