I can't wait until stem cell treatments are a primary course of treatment in healthcare. It will revolutionize medicine.

I just have to ask.....what if the boob doesn't stop growing? Would you cut the whole thing off or just tiny pieces as the need arose?

And for re-growing limbs.....what mother with a baby hasn't wished for three arms! Wouldn't it be great to have an extra one for the child bearing years, and then, get rid of the extra.

It seems to me that body parts usually "know" when to stop growing. Remember, all of our body parts and organs, in all of our bodies, were grown from stem cells.

I can see some interesting applications for this technology in sex re-assignment surgery.
