Innovative Surgical Techniques Used in World’s First Combined Face and Whole-Eye Transplantation

#americancollegeofsurgeons #clinicalcongress2024 #vascularizedcompositeallotransplantation #eduardodrodrigues An explanation of how an NYU Langone Health surgical team performed the world’s first combined face and whole-eye transplantation will be presented at the American College of Surgeons (ACS) Clinical Congress 2024 in San Francisco, California. Their achievement demonstrates the feasibility of transplanting an entire eye alongside a face transplant. This operation, performed in 2023, showcases the potential for future eye transplant procedures and marks a significant advancement in vascularized composite allotransplantation (VCA). This type of transplantation is particularly challenging since, unlike organ transplants that involve just one type of tissue, like a kidney or heart, vascularized composite allotransplantation involves transplanting a complex combination of different tissues — skin, muscle, blood vessels, nerves, and sometimes bone — all in one piece. Led by Eduardo D. Rodriguez, MD, FACS, director of the face transplant program at NYU Langone Health, the surgery involved a multidisciplinary team of more than 140 medical professionals. The transplant was performed on Aaron James, a 46-year-old military veteran from Arkansas, who suffered extensive facial and eye injuries from a high-voltage electrical accident.
