BUCHAREST, Romania - A court has ordered a Romanian surgeon to pay $795,000 in compensation to a patient whose penis he accidentally severed during an operation.
In July 2004, Dr. Naum Ciomu made a surgical error while operating on the man's testicles, severing the penis instead of making an incision to the testicle.
The Bucharest Magistrates Court ruled that Ciomu had been "superficial" in his approach to the operation, ordered the fine and handed Ciomu a one-year suspended prison sentence.
The ruling can be appealed.
The victim's lawyer said you don't have to be an expert to realize that the 33-year-old victim isn't in a good state of mind.

Ok - I have one question...namely, HOW does one mistake one for the other? Was the penis extra small, perhaps?...or were the testicles just really, really large? It's very puzzling, indeed...
