Woman receives windpipe built from her stem cells - health - 19 November 2008 - New Scientist:
"A Colombian woman has become the world's first recipient of windpipe tissue constructed from a combination of donated tissue and her own cells.
Stem cells harvested from the woman's bone marrow were used to populate a stripped-down section of windpipe received from a donor, which was then transplanted into her body in June."
