A patient going by "Rafael" poses after undergoing a face transplant at Sevilla's Hospital Virgen del Roci­o on May 4, 2010 in Sevilla. The second patient to have undergone a face transplant in Spain appeared before the media to thank the family of the donor for making the surgery possible before leaving the hospital. Rafael suffers from neurofibromatosis, a genetically inherited disorder in which the nerve tissue grows tumours. These tumours had severely disfigured Rafael's face.
