A toddler with one of the world's rarest medical conditions has undergone a life-saving operation to repair her damaged brain - with medical superglue.
Ella-Grace Honeyman was born with Vein of Galen Malformation, which causes tiny holes in the brain's main blood vessels and affects just a few hundred people worldwide.
She had just months to live after blood seeped through the openings and flooded her skull cavity, causing a potentially-fatal aneurysm.
It is so rare that no treatment is available in Britain and her parents had to raise more than £100,000 for pioneering treatment in America.
