Surgeons from Stellenbosch University conducted an unusual operation. They have replaced the male reproductive organ! The first successful operation was carried out in South Africa.
The operation was conducted in December 2014 with the participation of top-class surgeons, it lasted about 9 hours. It was in Cape Town for almost 4 months ago, but only now recognized successful operation, since a long time been studied and verified the authenticity of the “new” penis patient. The patient, who had surgery lost his home organ in the 18th, when subjected to infection after circumcision. Now in his 21, the young man is completely healthy and can have children. Remember, this is not the first attempt to transplant the penis. Prior to this, a similar operation was carried out in China – while also declared its success, but after 2-3 months it became clear that the body is not stuck and can not function properly.
Professor Andre van der Merwe, one of the surgeons, conduct operations, said in an interview with BBC BBC that the operation is much more complicated kidney transplant, which he did before. To connect the finest blood vessels and nerves, doctors have used a technique that is commonly used in plastic surgery for operations on the face.
Also this operation has undergone a lengthy discussion among physicians, as the usefulness of this is not so important, as for example: a heart transplant, which is important for human life.
This point of view is clear on the one hand, it’s not a direct threat to human life – and on the other hand, is a breakthrough in surgery since such operations require a lot of boys in the world.
