    Default Innovative Surgery Saves Cancer Victim

    MIAMI (Reuters) - Dr. Tomoaki Kato had to remove a lot more than a cancerous tumor during an unprecedented operation on a 63-year-old Florida woman earlier this month.
    ADVERTISEMENT

    To get to the tumor, which was buried deep in Brooke Zepp's abdomen and threatened to kill her within months, the organ transplant specialist said he first had to remove her stomach, pancreas, spleen, liver and small and large intestines.

    The organs were chilled and preserved outside Zepp's body during a painstaking 15-hour operation at the University of Miami/Jackson Memorial Medical Center.

    --

    During the operation, Zepp, who was expected to be discharged from her Miami hospital this week, had many blood vessels replaced with artificial ones made of Gore-Tex.

    "She came to me out of desperation,' Kato said. "I'm really glad it worked out well."

    Holy shitcocks, 10 rounds of respect to this genius son of a *****.

    Amazing, yet sort of... Disgusting. But hey, the patient is cured.

    Pretty impressive, I mean, sure, a little risky, but, I don't believe anything should get in the way of saving a life.

    Or the surgeons played 4 square with her liver...

    No that wouldn't be funny, that'd be terrible.

    Holy shit, that's freaking amazing...

    That's all of her major organs in her abdomen region removed... it's like she was a hollow vessel the whole time during the operation.

    Wow.
