The entire penis, scrotum without testicles and partial abdominal wall came from a deceased donor. The man lost his testicles in the explosion and did not get them restored as part of his transplant. The first penis transplant in the world took place in China in 2006, but it was later removed due to "a severe psychological problem of the recipient and his wife," doctors said. Only four penis transplants have ever been done successfully, including the one announced Monday, doctors said.
