My first reaction to this story was "this has got to be a hoax", like the sensationalist tabloid newspaper cover stories .
I have just done a little research on this , seems this latest report originates from Matthew Price, the United States BBC correspondent. (so unlikely to be a hoax).
Also have found this whole area of collagen scaffold technology is now becoming mainstream, but to so successfully grow such a large piece of human tissue is big news.
This is the BBC page link to video:
