Chimp attack

A picture of a US woman who underwent face-transplant surgery after being savaged by a chimpanzee in 2009 has been revealed for the first time.

Images of Charla Nash were aired on NBC's Today show and released by the hospital where she had surgery in May. The 57-year-old lost her nose, lips, an eyelid and her hands when the animal, which was kept by a friend as a pet, attacked her. She was also left blind.
