Chinese man has new nose grown on his forehead after losing his nose in a car crash

A 22 year old Chinese man named Xiaolian has had a new
nose grown on his forehead after loosing his original nose
in a car accident. Xiaolian had the treatment to create a
replacement for his original nose which was infected and
deformed following the accident in 2012. He actually left
his damaged nose unattended to after the accident which
led to the infection and eventual deformity, leaving the
surgeons unable to repair it.
Surgeons in China were left with no option than to create
another nose for the man to breathe properly and then
transplant it to the original place. The nose was created by
placing a skin tissue expander onto Xiaolian's forehead.
This was cut into the shape of a nose and was supported by
cartilage taken from the man's ribs. Continue...
Surgeons say that the nose has developed well and that the
transplant surgery will be carried out soon.
