Doctors amputate penis without consent.

I didn't even know there was such a thing as penis cancer. Anyway, this sucks. I don't know anyone without a penis. Except for maybe some girls.

A Tennessee man is suing doctors who amputed his penis without his consent.

Philip Seaton, 61, of Shelby County, was in hospital for a circumcision, reports WLKY.

But when he awoke from the operation, he realised his penis had been amputated.

Surgeons at the hospital in Louisville, Kentucky, said they had to take the drastic action after discovering a life-threatening cancer.

You know what they say...the first cut is the deepest...d'oh!

Not that it's any of my business, but I wonder why he was in there for a circumcision in the first place at 64 years of age...
