Or that they pulled it off twice! They have a "related" link to a story from 4 days ago with woman who was the first US facial transplant.

Shotgun victim unveils face transplant
An Ohio woman who was the first US recipient of a near-total face transplant has unveiled the results of her surgery, which restored key features after she was shot by her husband five years ago.

Connie Culp, 46, who was left without a nose, a palate or lower eyelids following a shotgun blast in 2004, underwent a 22-hour operation at the Cleveland Clinic in the state of Ohio last December.
