I came across this article I thought was interesting: Tissue engineers grow penis – with feeling http://www.newscientist.com/article/dn3672-tissue-engineers-grow-penis--with-feeling.html Article was from 2003 and was stating that it would be at least 10 years "before a fully-functional tissue engineered penis is grown in the lab and attached to a man or child." I wonder if anyone's still working on that project?

Would be nice to know their status and if they continued to have funding etc.

Thanks for posting the link.  It gives me a bit more hope that something better will come along for bottom surgery.

I was imagining more of a South Park thing with mice with penises on their backs running amok through the streets.
