There ya go now, nice to know your little soldier can battle on after you've passed away.

A South African man who received the world's first successful penis transplant is to become a father just months after undergoing surgery, his doctor said.

Urologist Andre van der Merwe, who led the team that performed the operation, told AFP that the 21-year-old man's girlfriend was pregnant.

"I was informed by him that his partner is about four months pregnant," Dr Van der Merwe, who is based at Stellenbosch University, said.

"We are happy that there were no complications and his penis is functioning well," Dr Van der Merwe told AFP.

"There was nothing preventing him from having children because his sperm wasn't affected."

Dr Van der Merwe has previously admitted surprise at the speed of the man's recovery of sexual function however, saying the original goal was that "he would be fully functional at two years".

The man, whose identity has not been revealed, received his new penis from an organ donor in a nine-hour operation on 11 December at Tygerberg Hospital in Cape Town.

His own penis had to be amputated three years previously after a botched traditional circumcision.

The procedure, which often leads to deadly complications, is performed on boys and young men as a rite of passage to adulthood in some rural parts of South Africa.

fair play to the donor, after the successful deed was done, I wonder if he turned in his grave, and then lit up a smoke?

<Harrumph> To the tune of "Yankee-Doodle Dandy":

De Valera had a cat,
and he was double-jointed.
And every time he went to town,
He had his mickey pointed.

Thank you very much, thank you. :cool:

Upgrade time.
I'll take the Jamaican swingweight special.
In white if you can.

I know a man had an unsuccessful penis transplant. His hand rejected it.
