>> You are aware than face transplants have occurred in other countries for several years?

A few, but none so complex as this one.

This was the fourth known successful face transplant in history, and the first total facial transplant. This was the first to include "bones, blood vessels and nerves" as well as other features like the nose and some teeth.

In short, a far more complex surgery than any of the others performed to date.
