Patient wakes up from circumcision to find penis removed

By Gaby Leslie | Yahoo! News � Tue, Aug 23, 2011



A US man has taken a doctor to court after he surgically removed his entire penis, allegedly without consent, during a routine circumcision.



Phillip Seaton, 64, woke up at the Jewish Hospital following the circumcision on 9 October 2007 to find his penis completely gone.



Mr Seaton, a lorry driver from Shelbyville, Kentucky, had undergone the circumcision to treat an inflammation problem. His surgeon, John Patterson, said the amputation was necessary because he discovered a rare and deadly form of penile cancer while performing the operation.



Lab tests later proved that he had a cancer known as squamous cell carcinoma.



But Mr Seaton�s lawyer Kevin George maintained the situation was not an emergency, and the family should have been allowed to get a second opinion.



Mr George told the court: �He's angry because Dr Patterson took off his penis without asking; without giving him a choice; without giving him the opportunity to check around and talk to other people.�



In court, the patient told jurors of the initial moment after being told his penis had been removed.



�I pulled the dressing down, and I didn't see nothing. Then I came out of the restroom and I said I'm getting the hell out of this damn hospital.�



Now Mr Seaton and his wife, Deborah, are seeking unspecified damages from John Patterson for �loss of service, love and affection�.



Mr Seaton has already sued the hospital, receiving an undisclosed amount of damages in an out-of-court settlement. A civil trial against Dr John Patterson is currently underway.



Dr Patterson, a urologist, defended himself in Shelby County Circuit Court. �What I saw was not a penis. What I saw was cancer,� he said on Monday.



According to Dr Patterson�s lawyer Clay Robinson, another doctor later removed the rest of the organ.



He also contends that Mr Seaton had signed a document authorising necessary treatment in unforseen circumstances.



�Mr Seaton is here today, able to be in this courtroom... because John Patterson saved his life,� Robinson argued.



The court case continues.
