A French team performed a transplant of the chin, lips and nose for a woman who suffered severe injuries after a dog attack.

Neat! And oddly creepy. Anyone else seen Les Yeux Sans Visage? A mere 46 years ago (in France, no less), such a thing was science fiction horror. Great movie, incidentally...

I don't mind the idea of having a dead persons organs, but having thier face would be just too wierd.
