How Much Is Your Penis Worth?
NASHVILLE, Tennessee --- Arthur C. Tucker Jr.
went to Vanderbilt University Medical Center for treatment
for a swollen prostate gland. The doctors used the
Prostatron system which is used to destroy excess
prostate cells with a beam of microwaves, but during
Tucker's appointment, something went terribly wrong.
Nurses told him that the pain he felt was normal when
it turns out the catheter may have slipped during
the procedure causing the microwaves to be directed
at his Penis.
His Penis was burnt so badly that he stayed in bed
for nearly a month, and then the member still had
to be amputated. Tucker and his wife sued the hospital
and EDAP Technomed Inc., which distributed the device,
for $13 million. They reached an out-of-court settlement
this week and the couple is reportedly "satisfied."
