Champeuois reports the case of a Sumatra boy of seven, who was injured to such an extent by an explosion as to necessitate the amputation of all his extremities, and, despite his tender age and the extent of his injuries, the boy completely recovered.

Jackson, quoted by Ashhurst, had a patient from whom he simultaneously amputated all four limbs for frost-bite.
Muller reports a case of amputation of all four limbs for frost-bite, with recovery.

The patient, aged twenty-six, while traveling to his home in Northern Minnesota, was overtaken by a severe snow storm, which continued for three days; on December 13th he was obliged to leave the stage in a snow-drift on the prairie, about 110 miles distant from his destination.

He wandered over the prairie that day and night, and the following four days, through the storm, freezing his limbs, nose, ears, and cheeks, taking no food or water until, on December 16th, he was found in a dying condition by Indian scouts, and taken to a station-house on the road.

He did not reach the hospital at Fort Ridgely until the night of December 24th--eleven days after his first exposure.
