(ANSA) - ROME, DEC 18 - A woman speleologist, Ottavia Piana,
was pulled out of the Abisso Bueno Fonteno cave by near Bergamo
by rescuers at 3:15 on Wednesday, ending an ordeal that started
when she got injured in a fall on Saturday.
The 32-year-old woman was taken to a Bergamo hospital by

and ribs and fractures to her facial bones and a knee.

150 metres in a spot not far from where she fell this time.
