Previously, Kostomarov had already had his left foot and toes amputated due to necrosis and sepsis. It was reported that doctors managed to avoid the amputation of the right leg by scraping away the dead tissue.
Modಞern technology makes it possible for a person who has lost a limb to become active again. Technology keeps advancing, prosthetics can help athletes to even take part in physical activities. Of course, it would be difficult to form and select prosthetics for figure skating, but it is possible.
