A 52-year-old Beijing woman surnamed Mu whose bone graft surgery was botched by a careless surgeon who twice left titanium wires in her left leg following the original operation is in negotiations with Xuanwu Hospital for her damages.

Is she asking for money? No. Fearful of more shoddy surgery in the future, she's demanding that a zipper be put in her leg in order to give the doctors easier entry in case of more complications.
