Coss Posted March 13, 2015 Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 http://www.nzherald.co.nz/world/news/article.cfm?c_id=2&objectid=11417218 South African doctors have performed the world's first successful penis transplant, three months after the ground-breaking operation. The 21-year-old patient had his penis amputated three years ago after a botched circumcision at a traditional initiation ceremony. In a nine-hour operation at the Tygerberg Hospital in Cape Town, he received his new penis from a deceased donor, whose family were praised by doctors. "We've proved that it can be done - we can give someone an organ that is just as good as the one that he had," said Professor Frank Graewe, head of plastic reconstructive surgery at Stellenbosch University. "It was a privilege to be part of this first successful penis transplant in the world." Doctors say the man, whose identity has not been disclosed, has made a full recovery since the operation on December 11 and had regained all his urinary and reproductive functions. In 2006, a Chinese man had a penis transplant but his doctors removed the organ after two weeks due to "a severe psychological problem of the recipient and his wife". ----------- now this is want I want to hear more about, could be a movie in this, 'Amityville Penis', 'A Penis on Elm Street', 'The Blair Penis Project' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
