Fat Stem Cells Repair Skulls:
When they say stuff like “stem cells can fix everything†I guess they weren’t kidding. Now you can take stem cells from fat and repair your skull. I guess calling someone a “fat head†will now be a compliment.
Surgeons in Germany say they used stem cells from a 7-year-old girl's fat to help repair severe damage to her skull. It's apparently the first time that researchers have generated bone in a person by using the fat-derived cells.Statistics: Posted by R3C — Fri Dec 17, 2004 1:29 pm
