Donor Kidney Removed Via Vagina
3 February 2009, 3:58 PM. By Alex Alvarez
Surgeons at Johns Hopkins have managed to successfully managed to remove a donor kidney through a patient’s vagina. What was it doing there, anyway? Oh.
After surgery, the patient left with only three pea-sized scars, one of which was hidden in her bellybutton. Cute?
Here’s how the procedure is done: Once the kidney is cut from where it is attached to the abdominal wall, its arteries and veins are stapled shut. Then, surgeons placed the now-loose kidney in a plastic bag, which is inserted into the body through an incision in the vaginal wall. The bag, and the kidney within, is then pulled out through the vaginal opening with a string.
The queefed-out kidney in question was removed from a 48-year-old woman who was donating the organ to her niece. Doctors say removing an organ through a natural orifice, like a vagina or an eye-hole, is often easier and results in faster recuperation and keeps patients from having to get a huge, uncomfortable scar. This isn’t the first time an organ has been removed this way, either - appendixes and diseased gallbladders have been removed using this same set of apparently double-hinged doors. This is, however, the very first time a healthy organ has been taken out via vagina. Oh really? Then what, exactly, was happening last night? Hey-o!

Isn’t there ancient case law on such things as this, something about a guy named Shylock and a cash loan.
