Pascal Coler’s Amazing Face Transplant Surgery

Newsweek has a web story about the six amazing and unusual surgeries in modern times. They included the almost full-face transplant completed on Pascal Coler in January of 2007.

Coler’s facial tumors disfigured his features and created life threatening conditions. Doctor’s were able to replace his lips, mouth, cheeks, and nose with those of a donor.
