Bye bye! See you again soon!
After being abandoned at birth in Central Vietnam, a baby boy was mauled by a wild animal. Miraculously, he survived and some local monks named him Thien Nhan, which means "Good Person". This blog reveals just how kind people can be, and how your donations are helping to turn Thien Nhan's life around.

Can male genitals be reconstructed?
Testicles
Because Thien Nhan has lost all testicular tissue he will not be able to father children and will need lifelong hormone replacement therapy. Prosthetic testicles will be inserted when he is older for cosmetic reasons.
Penis
As a first step, Thien Nhan will undergo urethral dilation to make urination easier. Because it appears that no penis tissue remains, at the moment, creating a feeling, functional penis remains out-of-reach. But there is hope.
Lab-grown penis cells
In 2006, American researchers managed to grow rabbit penis cells in a lab and use them to entirely replace the animals’ missing organs. Lead researcher Dr. Atala said that human trials remained “far off” but that the goal was “highly credible”. Dr. Atala’s colleague, reconstructive surgeon Dr. Wessells, estimated it would be around 2013 before a fully-functional tissue engineered penis could be grown in the lab and attached to a man or child. That’s just five years away.

Penis transplant
Also in 2006, Chinese surgeons performed the world's first penis transplant on a man whose organ had been damaged in an accident. The procedure, which required complex microsurgery to connect nerves and tiny blood vessels, was deemed a surgical success. After 10 days, tests revealed the organ had a rich blood supply and the man was able to urinate normally. Unfortunately, the recipient and his wife suffered severe psychological trauma and later demanded that the organ be removed. It remains unclear as to whether or not sexual intercourse would be possible with a transplanted penis.
