Penile transplant for severe injury or birth defect
Part of Genetic & congenital, Injuries & trauma, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.

This trial looks at transplanting donor tissue to rebuild parts of the face and one or both hands/forearms after major damage or loss. It aims to see if this approach can restore function and appearance, while carefully managing safety and side effects like the need for long-term immune-suppressing medicines.
This trial studies whether a transplant of tissue and blood vessels can improve function after limb amputations when prosthetic devices have not worked. It requires long-term medicines to prevent rejection, close follow-up, and intensive rehabilitation.
This trial compares two surgical techniques to correct severe penile curvature caused by Peyronie's disease. It tests which approach works better for men with advanced or complex cases.
This trial tests a special penile lengthening procedure done just before placing an inflatable penile implant. It may help men with erectile dysfunction who are already planning to get an implant get a better cosmetic result.
