Tweet

Wow! Did you guys read the just released article about the amazing surgery performed in Miami? Dr. Tomoaki Kato removed SIX organs from patient Brooke Zepp, who had a fatal, cancerous tumor, entangled in arteries and buried so deep in her abdomen, it was considered inoperable. I try to follow medical news, but this just burst through the door, and made my eyes widen and fwd the article to my whole family. This surgeon is amazing! Since I can not copy and paste yet (I am not eligible yet!), the first article on this that I read was on the AOL news. So if you go to their http://news.aol.com/health/story/ and search for Dr. Tomoaki Kato or maybe Brooke Zepp, you'll find it. You can even see her interviewed just a week after surgery. She looks so healthy and good. It was a 15 our ground breaking surgery. Her entire "engine" of organs were removed: Stomach, pancreas, spleen, liver, large, and small intestines! Frozen, while he untabgled the arteries the tumor was tangled in. I can't imagine that you could survive without those organs completely and functioning IN your body!! Can you imagine this? They were stores in a freezer, and then put right back in. She walked out of the hospital cancer free!!!!! This news just came out this week. I looked up his name to find out more, and other things that popped up was that he has been breaking ground non stop! He has done multiple SIX ORGAN TRANSPLANTS on babies and kids, amazingly having success all the time! This surgeon is so amazing, I hope he is getting even near all the praise he deserves! Wow.
