September 18, 200620 yr World's first transplanted penis is removed An accident victim has become the first person to have a penis transplant. The 44-year-old man was given the 4in organ from a braindead patient half his age in a complex 15 hour operation. But the organ had to be removed just 14 days later due to "a severe psychological problem with the recipient and his wife". Transplant expert Professor Andrew George, from Imperial College London, said it was unclear if the man would have been able to perform sexually with the donated penis. "Doing a penis transplant should be no more complex than anything else," he said. "But it takes time for nerve sensations to kick in." Top French surgeon Dr Jean-Michel Dubernard, who performed the world's first face transplant on a woman who had been attacked by a dog this year, said psychological consequences were a serious issue for many patients. "Psychological consequences of hand and face allografts show that it is not so easy to see permanently a dead person's hands, nor is it easy to look in a mirror to see a dead person's face," he wrote in the journal. "Clearly, in the Chinese case the failure at a very early stage was first psychological. It involved the recipient's wife and raised many questions." During the operation, carried out by surgeons in China, nerve fibres and tiny blood vessels were stitched to the donated penis. It also had to be connected to the urethra - the tube that empties the bladder. The patient was then given drugs to stop his immune system rejecting the new penis. Surgical teams claimed the operation was a sucess. Tests showed it had a rich blood supply and after just ten days, the man was able to urinate through it without the use of a catheter, according to a report in the European Journal of Urology. The proceedure is regarded as a major step forward in transplant surgery and brings new hope to men whose sex organs are damaged beyond repair in accidents or birth defects. Earlier this year, French surgeons transplanted a dead woman's face on to a dog-attack victim. Two years ago an Austrian team transplanted a human tongue into a patient with jaw cancer. Doctors have reattached male organs before, but this is the first time they have completed a penis transplant.
