When 67 year-old mechanic Hershell Ralls went into a hospital in Wichita Falls, Texas, in 1999 to have a cancerous bladder removed, he did not expect to wake up and find his penis to be missing as well.

Surgeons said they looped off his penis because they thought the cancer had spread there - but it hadn't. Ralls, who said that the doctors never warned him or his wife that amputation of the penis might be part of the surgery, recalled: "My wife had to hold my hand in the bed there. And she said, "Honey, it's over. They got all the cancer." And she waited a few minutes and then said: "But they had to remove your penis."
