Doctors have grown a man's penis from hand tissue. Briton Paul Lucas underwent pleuloplasty after cancer. The disease was discovered when he was 37 years old, and his penis had to be completely removed to save his life. When the cancer subsided, surgeons took skin, blood vessels and nerves from the forearm and created a new organ. However, the patient will still undergo several surgeries before a full recovery. He hopes the sensitivity will return with time.
