There is however a possibility to consider... I have got it in my head for some reason than ficus are easy to graft - this might also be wrong : ) You could graft a healty looking branch from the crown onto the stump after the cut. I don't know the exact procedure but I think it's just a matter of cleaning up the cuts with a super sharp, razor-like knife and try to match up the parts as good as you can. Then wrap with raffia or thread or something that can hold it firm together... Wait and hope for the best.
