This 15-hour, never before done, surgery is very amazing. They took all of the organs in her abdominopelvic cavity out of her body, including the cancer, removed the cancer, then put all the organs back in her body and reconnected all of her blood vessels and other tubes, all while keeping her alive. The one think they could not reconnect were the nerves going into the organs. Nerves do not regrow, so reconnections would have been pointless. No matter, all of the organ returned to normal function as soon as they were reconnected to blood vessels. This alone baffles surgeons across the world. Today, this woman walked out of the hospital after being given 6 months to live and having surgery on inoperable cancer!!!!

More research will obviously be needed but this could be a major breakthrough.
