Iran conducts first facial reconstruction surgery successfully
TEHRAN (ISNA)- The first and most important facial reconstruction surgery in Iran which lasted for nearly 5 hours ended with successful results.
Mousa Sheikh has undergone the surgery at Golestan Hospital after his face was badly damaged following hitting a guardrail.

"The free surgery on Mousa Sheikh has been accomplished. I'm satisfied with the operation results," said Farzad Fazilat, Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery specialist.

He further added removing the brain membranes skin was the most difficult section of the surgery conducted successfully.

Fazilat reiterated that he has carried out his most difficult operation, and added that the results of the surgery had been unpredictable, but the first phase ended with promising outcomes.

The Iranian physician added Sheikh has a long way to treatment, but the first section of the surgery which includes installation of the forehead and right cheek was done successfully.

Sheikh's face was deformed and terribly damaged after his motorcycle hit a guardrail 9 years ago.
