Thread: Man rejects first penis transplant

    Default Man rejects first penis transplant

    WOW!


    Chinese surgeons have performed the world's first penis transplant on a man whose organ was damaged beyond repair in an accident this year. The incident left the man with a 1cm-long stump with which he was unable to urinate or have sexual intercourse. "His quality of life was affected severely," said Dr Weilie Hu, a surgeon at Guangzhou General Hospital.
    Doctors spent 15 hours attaching a 10cm penis to the 44-year-old patient after the parents of a brain-dead man half his age agreed to donate their son's organ.

    The procedure, described in a case study due to appear in the journal European Urology next month, represents a big leap forward in transplant surgery; it required complex microsurgery to connect nerves and tiny blood vessels.

    The surgical team claims the operation was a success. After 10 days, tests revealed the organ had a rich blood supply and the man was able to urinate normally.

    Doctors have previously succeeded in reuniting men with their sexual organs after traumatic accidents or attacks, but the Guangzhou operation is the first in which a donor penis has successfully been attached to another man.

    Although the operation was a surgical success, surgeons said they had to remove the penis two weeks later. "Because of a severe psychological problem of the recipient and his wife, the transplanted penis regretfully had to be cut off," Dr Hu said. An examination of the organ showed no signs of it being rejected by the body.

    Jean-Michel Dubernard, the French surgeon who performed the world's first face transplant on a woman who had been attacked by a dog this year, said psychological factors were a serious issue for many patients receiving certain "allografts", or organs from donors. "Psychological consequences of hand and face allografts show that it is not so easy to use and 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."

    In 2001, surgeons were forced to amputate the world's first transplanted hand from Clint Hallam, a 50-year-old New Zealander, who said he wanted the "hideous and withered" hand removed because he had become "mentally detached" from it. The original transplant was conducted by Prof Dubernard's team at the Edouard Herriot Hospital in Lyons, who have since performed the world's first double arm transplant.

    Andrew George, a transplant expert at Imperial College, London, said: "Doing a penis transplant should be no more complex than anything else. But it takes time for nerve sensations to kick in and it's not clear whether the patient would ever be able to have sex with it. The question is whether it's right to be doing a transplant for what may be seen as cosmetic reasons."

    Jeeze. What situation that man was is in. No penis or one of a dead guy's. That's distrubing. How's he going to piss now, though?

    External allografts raise a whole heap of issues (pun only slightly intended), and I can't personally see it ever becoming commonplace even with the ability to manage histocompatibility. There's something deeply difficult to come to terms with in seeing a part of you that you know isn't yours, even if it's functionally under your control. Sewing something on isn't difficult (a penis, as I'm sure 150 million women are about to say, ain't nothing compared to a finger...) - but there's no way for the recipient to know how they're going to react psychologically until it's been done. To finish on yet another pun, it's got to be suck-it-and-see.

    I could see being able to deal with it simply so one could pee on one's own but sex with another man's doohicky dangling between my legs, if i were a guy. would be totally intollerable. The psyche is a fragile thing and doens't take well to my wife enjoying another mans penis, even if it is technically mine.

    too weird.

    I'm a guy and giggling, but maybe not for the same reason...

    I find it tragically humorous that this guy would rather appease his wife and have no penis than tell her to, "just fucking deal, I am not losing my cock twice."

    I guess there's the chance he was equally freaked out by it himself, but I am hard-pressed to believe he wouldn't have gotten over it in time. Having no cock = having no fun.

    Then again, maybe his wife was nigh unfuckable. Maybe they both were.

    I really do think that in the whole scale of "things that may suggest your wife is a lesbian", getting told

    "cut that damn thing off or you're never getting any action with me!"

    is pretty up there.

    and this is when i think cloning is excusable,.. but probably for too expensive and beyond modern medicine to today to be anywhere near practable(sp?),..

    but if you took it from a clone of yourself whom is grown to about your age and is also basically brain dead what is wrong with that?!? and donate the rest of the spare organs to people whom need them instead of buying them from the indionesian(sp?) black market,..(where some farmer worker sold a kidney just to feed himself and his family for a month.

    before or after it hit the operating theater floor?

    Beforehand we can't help - there don't seem to be any photos of the patient available on the wires (though it's not hard to imagine a timid Chinese man in a daiper being shouted at by his wife). Afterward is easy - just head outside and buy a chilli dog.

    Does anyone else think that the psychological issues may have stemmed from the fact they transplanted a 10cm penis? That's a measily 3 inches.
