Maggots
How to save a leg using maggots
A German scientist has rediscovered an ancient and miraculous way to clean up infected wounds. When antibiotics don't work, maggots can do the job instead
After a devastating car crash, bodybuilder Uwe Petersen was set to lose his leg. His injuries became infected with antibiotic-resistant bacteria and amputation seemed the only answer - until Dr Fleishman stepped in with a novel approach. He used maggots to eat away the infected flesh and save the leg.
