Who needs Lorena Bobbitt

2003 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

I am an Emergency Room resident at large county hospital in a big city.

I had a patient a couple of days ago, who after doing some PCP and cocaine, took a pocket knife, cut open his scrotum removed one of his testicles, burned it, and then placed it back in the scrotum. Then he proceeded to cut the tip of his penis off. After which he was brought to the Emergency Room, I believe by his wife. The patient lived, but both testicles had to be resected, since for medical reaons if you severely injure one testicle the other one has to go too or you own body will reject it.

So even though he survived, he surely, did remove himself from the gene pool.

(Addendum by the author) There are several corrections to the story. (1) My bad, as Gregory correctly mentioned severely injuring one testicle does not require resection of the other one; however, the injured individual usually does become infertile because of the violation of the blood testes barrier. (2) This should not affect the eligibility of the story, but the patient was positive for Amphetamines, not PCP. (3) I have digital pictures. I just need to obtain permission for releasing them.

I am a physician although not a urologist and this theory that if one testicle is severely damaged the other must be removed was never taught in my medical school. In fact, I had classmate who had lost a testicle in a motorcycle accident and still had the other.

Yes, no confirmation, no DA. I don't think the nature of a PCP induced psychosis truly permits this to be considered poor judgment either- Just drug induced insanity.

Yeah, it makes me hurt just thinking about it too, but without confirmation, a PA is all I'd go for.
