A top transgender surgeon is being sued by two patients who claim their operations left them with deformed genitals.
Eh? Isn't that exactly what all such operations do?
Cetrulo, a renowned plastic surgeon who performed the first successful penis transplant in the United States in 2016, worked at MGH's Transgender Health Program.The lawsuits claim that Cetrulo's 'delayed abdominal phalloplasty' operations on both patients were 'untested and experimental' procedures that resulted in severe complications. According to the court filings, a delayed abdominal phalloplasty is a staged procedure that uses skin from the abdomen to construct a penis. One patient from New Mexico who traveled to Boston for the surgery claimed the operation left him with a 'severely deformed, scarred, and nonfunctional structure that was intended to serve as phallus.'
Yes, and? What exactly were you expecting, madam? A fully functioning member? Surely not?
'While we cannot comment on ongoing litigation, our priority remains delivering safe, high-quality care,' a spokesperson from Mass General Brigham, the healthcare system the oversees MGH, told the Daily Mail.
No. your priority remains charging fortunes to surgically mutilate mentally ill people, having forsaken your Hippocratic Oath long, long ago.
