After injuring his penis during sex with his wife in July 2011, a man claims doctors shortened his penis after surgery. The man, who desires to remain anonymous, is a Canadian paraplegic, who claims his shorter penis was worse than losing his legs. He’s suing Quebec’s Pierre-Le Gardeur Hospital for $155,000.
“This has caused a greater impact on my life than when I lost the use of my legs,” the paraplegic said. After being rushed to hospital, the suit says a nurse “made a brief visual inspection of the penis without touching it.”
After he was brought into the hospital after the injury, the man claims no one examined him. When he returned to the hospital weeks later, he discovered he had a fractured penis. After getting surgery to fix his member, the job shortened his penis by an inch. The man claims he was unable to have sex with his wife for several weeks. Those weeks turned into years, and he and his wife eventually separated.
The hospital has yet to release a statement.
