Oscar, 31, underwent a full-face transplant in March. He appeared in public today for the first time at a news conference at the Vall d'Hebron Hospital in Barcelona, Spain

Great job Dr.Joan Barret
ReplyDeleteI remember an episode on I think it was TLC, it was called A New Face for Marley. I guess she got malled by a dog and she had a face transplant. Although, her face and donor had a resemblance, they did not look exactly alike.
So I would have to agree with the previous post, if consent has been given there really are no issues.
