A man from China’s Fujian province has had a new nose grown on his forehead following a traffic accident last year.
The 22-year-old man suffered severe nasal trauma and his subsequent treatment caused his nasal cartilage to corrode. Surgeons came up with the idea of growing a nose on his forehead.
After nine months of growth, surgeons say that the the nose is in good shape and the transplant will be performed soon.
The BBC’s Carrie Gracie reports.
