And the American child - who lost his hands and feet at the age of two due to a life-threatening sepsis infection - is continuing to receive daily therapy, which could result in further advances.
来自美国的哈维两岁时因致命的败血症感染不得不截去了双手双脚。他现在每天继续接受康复治疗，预计情况将进一步改善。
Before undergoing the 11 hour operation, the young boy was unable to dress, feed and wash himself. Zion told doctors that his ambition was to one day swing a baseball bat.
在接受11个小时的手术前，哈维不能独自穿衣、吃饭和洗澡。哈维告诉医生他的愿望是有一天能够挥动棒球球棒。
After achieving this, the child, from Baltimore in Maryland said:"Here's the piece of my life that was missing. Now it's here, my life is complete."/>
愿望实现后，来自马里兰州巴尔的摩的哈维说：“过去我生命中缺失的那部分找到了，我的生命因此而变得完整。”
Within days of the US surgery, which involved four medical teams, working simultaneously, the child was able to move his fingers.
经过四个医疗团队的同时努力，手术几天后，哈维能够活动手指了。
By six months, he could move the transplanted hand muscles, and soon after was able to use scissors and crayons, doctors found.

The child also suffered minor infections and impairment to his transplanted kidney, the anonymised report notes.
这篇匿名的报告特别提到，哈维的移植肾脏也有轻度感染和损伤。
"Our study shows that hand transplant surgery is possible when carefully managed and supported by a team of surgeons, transplant specialists, occupational therapists, rehabilitation teams, social workers and psychologists," said Dr Sandra Amaral, of the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia.
费城儿童医院的桑德拉·阿马拉尔医生说：“我们的研究表明，在外科医生、移植专科医生、职业治疗师、康复团队、社会工作者和心理学家团队的细心管理和支持下，手部的移植手术是可以完成的。”
"18 months after the surgery, the child is more independent and able to complete day-to-day activities.
“手术的18个月后，哈维更加独立，可以完成日常活动。”
"He continues to improve as he undergoes daily therapy to increase his hand function, and psychosocial support to help deal with the ongoing demands of his surgery."/>

The surgery took place in July 2015 at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia in collaboration with Penn Medicine.

Researchers said that caution must be taken when assessing the benefits and harms of such surgery, given the need for immunosuppression medication which carries risk for other conditions.
研究人员说，由于术后需使用免疫抑制药物，而该类药物的使用又会有产生其他状况的风险，所以人们在评估此类手术带来的好处和伤害时必须谨慎。
"While functional outcomes are positive and the boy is benefiting from his transplant, this surgery has been very demanding for this child and his family," Dr Amaral said.
阿马拉尔医生说，“尽管移植双手的功能预后良好，哈维也从中受益，然而哈维和家人也为手术付出了很多。”
In July last year, Chris King became the first person in the UK to have a double hand transplant in a pioneering operation at Leeds General Infirmary.
去年七月，在利兹总医院的一次开拓性手术中，克里斯·金成为了英国接受双手移植的第一人。
