Man claims surgeons AMPUTATED his penis without his permission during circumcision surgery.
The man said he had no idea his penis would be amputated when he went into hospital for the routine procedure
Ouch: The alleged victim says he "never gave consent" for his penis to be amputated
The alleged victim says he went in for routine circumcision surgery and awoke to find the organ
had been completely removed.
The man and his wife are now suing two doctors and Princeton Baptist Medical Center in Birmingham, Alabama, according to the Birmingham News.
The plaintiffs claim before the procedure was carried out in June they "never gave consent for
the complete or partial amputation of (his) penis," it adds.
The lawsuit adds that the man was never provided with an explanation as to the medical
necessity of an amputation, nor was warned the circumcision procedure could result in an
amputation.
As a result of the allegedly botched surgery, the man says he has suffered unnecessary pain and
spent additional time in hospital recovering.
The man's wife is also claiming she has suffered financially because of her husband's injuries.
