baby face scaffold became first world undergo operation

A baby boy who became the first in the world to undergo a miracle face operation has celebrated his first birthday against the odds.

Little Noah Connell was born with a number of facial deformities that mean the lower part of his face doesn't grow properly and he has trouble breathing.

Even swallowing his own saliva could be enough to kill Noah, who has had metal "scaffolding" inserted into his face in the hope of moving his jaw forward.
