He underwent penis enlargement surgery but it didn’t end well

A 40-year-old man underwent penis enlargement surgery but the result was not only not what he expected but caused him terrible harm, from which, as he assured, he will not be able to recover either physically or emotionally.

The fact is that the man, originally from Tuscany, Italy, did not get himself a bigger member, as he would have liked, but he was left with “impotence and erectile dysfunction”, product of the procedure performed at a local private clinic, according to the complaint filed in court.

Now, the man, whose identity is being kept secret to protect him from possible stigmatization, has obtained a compensation ordered by Justice of just over 165 thousand dollars, which after the appeal dropped to around 110 thousand.

According to the Italian newspaper La Repubblica, the man experienced a real ordeal after the failed operation to lengthen his penis, which involved undergoing 12 more surgeries.

Bad practice and a difficult road

As explained in his statement, the man turned to a cosmetic surgeon for penis enlargement surgery, which he paid him 5,000 euros (about $5,400).

However, after about a month went to the doctor again because, he assured, the physical discomfort was intense and constant. “Even when I slept, the pain didn’t go away. It was real torture,” she said.

That moment, he determined, was the beginning of a painful odyssey in which the patient underwent a total of 12 procedures in an attempt to correct the initial failed surgery.

According to court documents obtained by Italian media, the man He has undergone two lipofilling operationsin which fat was transferred from various parts of the body to the penis to change its shape.

But unfortunately, They did not have the desired effectas the man’s genitals did not maintain the expected shape and volume.

The man then underwent several other procedures to repair the damage to his genitals, but this They only made things worse.

According to experts who studied the case and testified during the trial, in some of these procedures Silicone banned since 1993 was used.

So, after all the operations he underwent, they left his penis deformed and incapable of being used in a sexual act.

So they asked the man to undergo surgery again, but he was already exhausted “in every sense”, the man refused and it was then that he decided to report the doctor and the healthcare facilities where the procedures were performed.

Trying to dodge bullets

The accused doctor defended himself in court, claiming this the patient was initially satisfied Following the operation, he also showed videos as proof that the man had sent it to him.

Furthermore, the surgeon assured the judge that the man had previously signed a consent form.

However, Justice rejected his claims, establishing that the patient “I wasn’t aware of the physical risks I was taking” and added that his satisfaction with the aesthetic result of the surgery was completely irrelevant, because “it was the healthcare professional’s job to evaluate the success of the surgery”.

Meanwhile, also the two clinics involved in this case They tried to avoid their responsibilities claiming that they were only “lending” their facilities to the doctor, but the judge ruled that they benefited from the doctor’s work and co-responsibility.

In the end, Justice ordered the doctor to pay 60% of the compensation, while the remaining 40%, or half each, the clinics had to pay.
