My uncle is a general surgeon in Boston and had a VERY crazy and cool thing happen today.
A baby was born premature and actually came out without any eyelids.
They were generally concerned that this could lead to an infection or that they would not grow, so they called my uncle to save that day!!!!
He showed up and he ended up circumsising the baby and they reconstructed eyelids from the leftover skin.
The surgery was a complete success!!!!!!!!!!!!! The only issue is the baby came out a little cockeyed.
