Doctors Reporting Successful Penis Transplant In China
<snip>

Chinese doctors said they successfully transplanted a penis on a man who lost his own in an accident.

The case appears to be the first such transplant reported in a medical journal, this one recorded in European Urology.

However, the transplanted penis had to be removed two weeks later because of what were described as psychological problems experienced by the man and his wife. :shrug: :rofl:

Surgeons performed the transplant in September 2005. The report does not explain how the man lost his penis and only said that it happened in "an unfortunate traumatic accident" that left the man unable to urinate or have sex normally.

The penis came from a 22-year-old brain-dead man whose parents agreed to donate his organ.

1. Unclear antecedent in headline
What exactly differentiates a "successful penis" from any other penis? :D

5. I didn't see a check box for "penis" on the organ donor card...
...but there WAS one on my last employment application, right under "Are you willing to relocate?" I didn't get the job, but I got to keep my penis.

:rofl:
