Worlds first penis transplant.

The theatrical world of penis envy took an unexpected turn this week when surgeons in South Africa announced that they had successfully transplanted the penis of a dead person onto a young man.

The story started when a 21-year old man, whose penis had been “amputated” three years previously, sought medical help. He reported that, during an “initiation ceremony” a few years earlier, an inept surgeon who intended to perform a circumcision cut off not just foreskin but the entire penis.

The unnamed patient is not alone. According to The Guardian, in one province where the ceremony is commonly performed among teenagers, usually in secret, this complication—a penis accidentally severed or else removed to treat severe local infection and gangrene—occurs in 250 men a year. Now there’s a vote for tighter regulation.

The South African surgical team reported that during the nine-hour operation they were able to connect the donor penis to the patient despite the three-year interval since amputation. Details of the donor are few but surely his death had to have been quite recent, given the need to transplant any tissue from dead to living as quickly as possible to assure preservation of vital anatomy and function.

Details of the recipient’s sex life though are pretty loudly trumpeted. He is a full go, per the surgeons, who noted that he developed an erection during a recent minor operative procedure that involved removing a urinary catheter. In all ways, he “accepts the organ as his own.”

Leaving aside the societal and ethical issue of ceremonial initiations involving genitalia in young adults and the inevitable debate on how-is-this-different-really-than-American-newborn-foreskin-pruning; leaving aside even the needed material this will provide Jimmy Fallon, Conan O’Brien, et al during their parched spell as they try to find something funny to say about Hillary Clinton and email, this switcheroo may be the start of something quite bad. 

We already have a disturbing problem with a black market in human partsthat extends well outside of New Jersey. There is international trade with kidneys and the like being harvested from China’s prisoners to implant into transplant tourists and wealthy locals.

Lol. I wonder if transgender people could have one installed. They could get a pump to inflate it.

 What is the Internal Penile Pump™? The term penile implant, penile prosthesis, inflatable penile prosthesis and internal penile pump will be used interchangeably and all refer to the multicomponent inflatable penile prosthesis.

The  Internal Penile Pump™ is a soft fluid-filled device (the liquid is water and salt) that can expand and contract without losing elasticity. It consists of three small components: very thin tubes, the pump, and the reservoir. The reservoir contains fluid, which is transferred by the pump into the tubes, causing the penis to expand and become rigid.

There are over 250,000 men who have the Internal Penile Pump™. As you can see from the photographs, once inserted the Internal Penile Pump™ is invisible and the penis looks normal both in the flaccid and erect positions.

Highlights of the Internal Penile Pump™

  • Opportunity for spontaneous sexual activity
  • Pump under the skin, totally concealed, eliminates self consciousness
  • Restores normal function and anatomy
  • Preserves sensation and orgasm
  • Penis feels and performs naturally, looks fuller, more youthful and totally normal
  • Patients and partners praise improved quality of life
  • Huge number of urological journal articles dating back to 1973 documenting the reliability, safety, and efficacy of the Internal Internal Penile Pump™
  • Covered by most insurance carriers including Medicare and Medicaid

 

Candidates for the Internal Penile Pump™

The Internal Penile Pump™ enables men who suffer from severe erectile dysfunction to resume a normal spontaneous sex life. Excellent candidates are men who have permanent erectile dysfunction, sexually motivated and active men who have had prostate, bladder or colon cancer treatment and men who have penile deformity and or atrophy.

This also includes men who have vascular disease from diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, and elevated cholesterol levels. All men who suffer from erectile dysfunction due to a physical problem and who do not respond, tolerate or are tired of taking medications are excellent candidates for the internal penile pump.  

How It Works During Sexual Activity

When a man is sexually aroused, all he has to do is squeeze the pump between the thumb and index finger, and an erection occurs. It looks and feels so normal that many patients report that even after sexual activity, a new partner could not tell that an Internal Penile Pump™ was present.

When the erection is no longer desired, the patient squeezes and holds the pump, which releases the fluid back into the reservoir and brings the penis back to a flaccid state. The patient controls the duration of the erection. If a patient has an orgasm too quickly, the erection is not lost, and the patient is able to maintain it until his partner is satisfied.

How is it Placed?

In our center, it is an outpatient procedure, which usually takes less than one hour, and can be performed under local, epidural, spinal or general anesthesia. The complete Internal Internal Penile Pump™ is placed through a very small opening, usually an inch long, in the scrotal sac. This is a breakthrough when compared to previous techniques, which made much larger openings that required longer and a more painful healing process. The skin on the penis itself is never opened so that there are no visible scars.

We were talking about the transplants earlier. We were kind of giggling about how it would look if men of one skin color got another skin color penis.

I used to sell these, and teach the surgeons how to implant them.

I got to hold a breast implant once. Not as good as the real thing, but still good.

Tried them on? You mean as a bra stuffer? 

After my sister's mastectomy, I found her a place that made a custom prosthesis for that side, so she would look normal through her clothes.
