                 Severely Disfigured Firefighter Gets New Face

   by Zlatica Hoke

   A U.S. volunteer firefighter who was severely burned in a house fire 14
   years ago has lived ever since with a severely disfigured face. The
   prospect of losing his eyesight prompted him to undergo a face
   transplant. The surgery was the most comprehensive of its kind since
   the world's first such transplant in 2005. VOA's Zlatica Hoke reports.
