Seems They Can Transplant Just About Anything...


but a Penis.

   The world's first penis transplant has been reversed after only two weeks.  Apparently, the man was left with only a small stump after an accident and there was "a strong demand from both the patient and his wife" for the transplant.

   Fourteen days after the penis transplant, the recipient and his wife requested that the organ be removed "because of the wife's psychological rejection as well as the swollen shape of the transplanted penis," the surgeons report in the journal.

   Funny, seems the world's first hand transplant was also rejected...ahem.
