7/31/2006: Chinese face transplant (warning, graphic)



The point of this one, I remind folks, is not to enjoy the gruesomeness of it (although you CAN if you want, because ew! groosss!!), but to me it's more about what's medically possible and how that advances.

And IotD has picked up all the other face transplant items...

The man, named only as "Li", suffered his injuries in a bear attack in 2004. The "before" image on the left was taken April 13 2006; the "after", three days ago. (Oops, I mean July 28, 2006, for those Dwellars who prefer the datestamp time format)
