TL;DR Summary

Surgeons at Hadassah Medical Center in Jerusalem successfully reattached a 12-year-old boy's head to his neck after he suffered internal decapitation in a bicycle accident. The rare and complex surgery involved repairing the severed ligaments and using innovative technology. The boy, Suleiman Hassan, has shown no neurological deficits and has been discharged with a cervical splint for continued monitoring. Internal decapitation is typically fatal, but children may have a higher survival rate. The boy's father expressed gratitude to the medical staff for saving his son's life.
