A 33-year-old steelworker has
filed a complaint against the doctors at the Torina clinic in
Palermo for a poorly executed surgery that allegedly resulted in
his losing a testicle afterwards.
The man, whose lawyer in the lawsuit is Giulio Bonanno, said
that he had gone to the urology department of Villa Sofia for
some checks. He was diagnosed with a left idiopathic varicocele
and an operation was scheduled for October 31.
He said that he immediately felt pain and was subsequently
taken to the emergency room and hospitalized on November 12,
where his testicle was removed.
