Superglue Baby

Three-week-old Ashlyn Julian is recovering quickly in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit at The University of Kansas Hospital from a near fatal aneurysm that ruptured twice. Doctors Koji Ebersole, MD, endovascular neurosurgeon and assistant professor as well as Dr. Alan Reeves interventional neuroradiologist and assistant professor, teamed up for the life-saving procedure. First, Dr. Reeves gained access to Ashlyn's tiny blood vessels near her hip. Once inside, Dr. Ebersole maneuvered a drop of sterile superglue to her brain using instruments the size of a pencil lead and human strand of hair.
