A nine-year-old African boy accidentally amputated part of his penis with a pestle and mortar while crushing vegetables.
The unidentified child was taken to hospital in Gabon after clipping the tip of his penis as he smashed the stone tools between his legs.
Doctors immediately took the 'anxious' boy into surgery to determine the extent of his injuries, after arriving with his injured member covered in a soaked bandage.
They found the tip of his penis was partially detached and his urethra — the tube which passes urine — was fully severed.
Medics first reconnected the urethra using a catheter, a flexible tube used to empty the bladder and collect urine in a drainage bag. They then sewed the end of his penis back on while the boy was under local anaesthetic.
The boy made a full-recovery and had normal function at a check up a year later.
