Examples that are not morally wrong, because medically beneficial, would include separating conjoined twins and plastic surgery to reconstruct malformed features, limbs or organs. That would also, I think, OK surgery to conform a sexually ambiguous child's external sexual anatomy with his genotype (constructing a penis for a child who has a Y chromosome, or a vagina for a child who doesn't.)
We could wind it up here, I think. If I run into anything interesting on these points, I'll try to remember to ping you ---and you do the same for me?
