South African Penis Transplant Patient To Become A Father!
A South African man who received the world's first successful penis transplant is to become a father just months after undergoing surgery, his doctor said Friday. Urologist Andre van der Merwe, who led the team that performed the operation, told AFP that the 21-year-old's girlfriend was pregnant. "He said that she is about four months pregnant. They are very happy with it and we also very happy," said Van der Merwe, who is based at Stellenbosch University. "We are happy that there were no complications and his penis is functioning well," he said. There was nothing preventing the patient from having children because his testicles, where sperm is produced, were not affected.
Van der Merwe has previously admitted surprise at the speed of the man's recovery of sexual function however, saying the original goal was that "he would be fully functional at two years".
