Tori Begler

Tori Begler is a girl who had a large abdominal tumor.
==History==
Tori was diagnosed with an abdominal leomyosarcoma. She was airlifted from Seattle Presbyterian Hospital to Seattle Grace Hospital so the doctors could try to make a plan to remove her tumor. The tumor was large and wrapped around several of her organs. Meredith used Anatomy Jane to explain the tumor to Tori and her family.
Her grandmother then insisted that Erica Hahn be on the team, because Dr. Stewart had told them that she was the best cardiovascular surgeon. Erica wasn't optimistic about Tori's chances for survival, because three other hospitals had turned them away. Despite this, she joined the team and they started discussing options. Meredith suggested that they take out the organs that were involved in the blood supply in order to resect the tumor. They needed to figure out a way to give them the time they needed to do that. They decided to take the organs out and put them on ice while they cut out the tumor.
They took Tori into surgery and started resecting the tumor. They hit a wall when they didn't have enough tissue to re-attach the organs. They agreed to use human umbilical vein to bridge the gap. Once they were done, they were able to reconnect the organs and close. She was stable after surgery.
