  • Thanks to UC Davis Medical Center, Brenda Jensen spoke without electronic assistance for the first time in more than a decade. The Modesto resident had undergone an historic larynx (voice box) transplant on Oct. 16, 2010. She and her transplant team were eager to find out whether the surgery -only the second documented case in the world - had been successful. Brenda returned to Sacramento and we caught up with her after one of her regular visits to UC Davis' Dept. of Otolaryngology.

    She got a good result but that 1st transplant " Tim Heidler" got an excellent result. His voice is a lot better than many ppl with normal-sounding male voices.

      Well her voice probably changed but this women probably has a different mouth/tongue size and she may speak with a different dialect language is more than just your vocal chords

      Mayo Clinic is allowed to do a couple per year. I think it's the only program in the U.S., and it's still extremely experimental.
