A plastic surgeon in China has successfully grown an artificial ear on a
man's arm in a pioneering medical procedure. The patient, surnamed Ji,
lost his right ear in an accident and yearned to get it back. Doctor Guo
Shuzhong from a hospital in Xi'an, China's Shaanxi Province, used Mr
Ji's cartilage from his ribs to build the new ear; and transplanted the
organ to the man's head in about four months.
