Rebuild and Renew
Surgeons attempt to save a patient鈥檚 life and her ability to smile, by removing a tumour in her cheek and reconstructing her facial nerve.
At St John鈥檚 Hospital in Livingston, consultant ear, nose and throat surgeon Ashley Hay specialises in some of the most challenging cancer cases: removing tumours from the head and neck. He鈥檚 joining forces with consultant plastic surgeon Patrick Addison for a complex and unusual case. They're hoping to both save their patient鈥檚 life and preserve her ability to smile.
A very different kind of reconstruction is happening at Edinburgh鈥檚 Western General Hospital, where consultant urological Surgeon Voula Granitsiotis attempts a highly technical operation which will change her patient鈥檚 life: a complete bladder removal.
