New penis recipient looks forward to being a 'complete' man
The former Halifax, Massachusetts, bank courier whose organ was amputated after he was diagnosed with penile cancer in 2012 has been ambling around his room with a walker and said he doesn't feel any pain.
The South African patient remains healthy and was able to father a child, though the baby was stillborn.
The Chinese man, however, had his new penis removed weeks later because he said it made him and his wife uncomfortable.
The revolutionary procedure could give hope to cancer survivors, accident victims and maimed soldiers.
[...] Manning said he will stay and undergo largely cosmetic surgery on Monday to improve the organ's appearance.
Manning's penile cancer was discovered after a workplace accident in which he slipped on ice.
Doctors told him they needed to take aggressive action to save his life.
