Title: BBC: Penis tissue replaced in the lab
Post by: Snowdoggy on November 11, 2009, 12:09:24 PM
Hi all,

"Tissue created in a laboratory has been used to completely replace the erectile tissue of the penis in animals. The advance raises hopes of being able to restore full function to human penises that have been damaged by injury or disease."
