Here is some advice, guys. If you ever have to be operated on for anything, before you go under, grab the doctor by the collar and tell him,"No matter what... Don't cut off my penis."
A Shelby County, Kentucky man and his wife said two doctors amputated the man's penis without his consent, and have filed a lawsuit.
According to the lawsuit, Philip Seaton went to have a circumcision last October. Seaton said when he woke up from the procedure, he realized his penis had been amputated.
The lawsuit states that Patterson received consent to perform a circumcision and only a circumcision, and that Seaton did not consent to his penis being removed.
Kevin George, the plaintiff's attorney, said the doctors amputated the organ after finding cancer, but he only had consent to remove the foreskin.
Seems there was some debate as to exactly how much skin to take off.
I guess someone has to make the hard choices.
