Thanks to some flanges, and after waiting several days to be able to close the tissue, doctors Antonio Rodriguez González and Javier Beltrán were able to lift the two accessible parts of the shield.
This procedure allowed the lungs to expand when subjected to pressure, improving Juliet’s quality of life.
Two days later, Juliet was feeling much better and started eating on her own.
Dr. Xavier Beltran sealed the shield with a biocompatible material that could be in contact with other organs and a metal mesh. Also a special resin makes it waterproof.
