Kakuhou Transplant Surgery

[OVERVEIW]

The kakuhou transplant surgery is a medical procedure used to create artificial one-eyed ghouls. It was originally pioneered by Doctor ███████ Kanou, and involves removing the kakuhou from a ghoul and implanting it into a human or half-human patient.

[HISTORY]

It is rumored that the Commission of Counter Ghoul originally discussed the idea of hybridization, but the idea was supposedly shelved due to ethical concerns.

[RESULTS]

The surgery is incredibly high-risk, with only three successes out of 1,200 total experiments using ████. Many of those experimented on died as a direct result, with survivors becoming deformed creatures of limited intelligence. Several of these malformed creatures were given to █████ Abe, who used them as Scrappers at the Ghoul Restaurant.

It is unknown how many subjects died during the experiments using █████████, though only one "Owl" and a "Floppy" have been produced using sixty-three test subjects during nearly three years of experiments. Kanou concedes that his ghoulification experiments have an extremely low percentage of success.

[QUINX SURGERY]

After ███ ██████ was captured by the CCG, his body was examined by their scientists to gain insight into the procedure. Drawing from Kanou's results, Doctor ███████ Chigyou developed the Quinx surgery as a safer alternative. Instead of directly implanting the kakuhou into a patient, the kakuhou is put through the same procedures used to make a quinque and then implanted with a five-tier system of quinque steel frames to regulate the kakuhou. This results in a weaker, but more stable subject that is able to use a ghoul's abilities while retaining their humanity.

The Quinx surgery is also much safer, using a measurable compatibility to determine suitable subjects prior to performing the surgery. This has resulted in consistent success in the creation of Quinx.  Kaneki was captured by the CCG, his body was examined by their scientists to gain insight into the procedure.
