According to the report, the boy was brought to the plastic surgery unit after a total subcoronal penile amputation, meaning the penis was cut off just below the head, during a ritual circumcision performed by a layperson described as a local barber.
"Laypersons" sind Verstümmler, die keine Ärzte sind. Die dürfen bei uns auch verstümmeln. Ob sie außerdem noch Friseure sind, ist egal. Bei uns werden ja auch Verstümmelungen durch Fleischer durchgeführt (siehe Antaras).
QuoteThe amputated part was preserved and transported with the child to the hospital, where surgeons first attempted a full replantation, which in ideal cases involves microsurgical reconnection of arteries and veins under a powerful operating microscope.
But the penis's arteries were too small for repair, so the team had to find another option.
Faced with this limitation, the team opted to sew the penis back on as a composite graft, reattaching the organ without reconnecting all the tiny arteries.
Der arme Junge!
Ende gut alles gut? Ob sein Penis je wieder so funktioniert und sensibel ist wie ein in Frieden gelassener ist sehr die Frage.
QuoteThe Indian team’s experience also shows that even when catastrophic injuries occur, prompt transfer to a specialist center and modern reconstructive techniques can sometimes save the organ, a point that has been echoed in rare but dramatic cases treated in Israel and abroad.
"Sometimes". Also manchmal auch Totalverlust.
