Another Ben Carson or what?

Doctor Guo Shozhong, a plastic surgeon from a hospital Xi'an, China's Shaanxi Province, has successfully grown an artificial ear on a man's arm in pioneering medical procedure.



The patient, Surnamed Ji, lost his right ear in an accident and wished to get it back. Doctor Guo Shozhong 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.
