Hey there everyone. I'm a medical student at Stellenbosch University in South Africa where about a week ago, our Urology staff announced to the media that the first successful penis transplant had been performed in December 2014, with the patient having regained most urinary and sexual function by the time the press conference was held.
I'd just like to hear any comments that you might have? Most of the local media coverage has been positive, but there have been a multitude of social media comments regarding whether penis transplantation is a worthy allocation of medical funds and research.
Thoughts? International reactions academically speaking?
