Nurse, get me a pie chart!

A certain Chronicle story, of a sensitive nature, has an amusing error in it:

Nuņez showed jurors a large scar running the length of his forearm, from which doctors took a skin graph to help construct a new penis.

One of Laurence Simon's commenters caught it:

"Skin graphs"? Who's doing the proofreading over there?

Maybe the doctors drew lots of vertical and horizontal lines to help with the, ummm, repair process?

And yes, the error is in the paper.
