A Treatment Developed by a Turkish Doctor Enters the Medical Literature

Milliyet reported that a method Prof. Dr. Suleyman Tas had applied two years earlier was published in Archives of Plastic Surgery (APS). For a patient with facial burns, a new face was created from the patient’s own tissue by mimicking physiological pregnancy. He said that with this method, which uses the patient’s own tissue, face transplants may become a thing of the past. The patient, Fatma Albayrak, said: “When I look in the mirror, I look much better now. I’ve made peace with mirrors. Before, I couldn’t go out at all. Now I can.”
