(WSVN) — A man suing after a major medical mistake left him disfigured gave testimony Thursday that revealed the intimate details of his misery.
Late Thursday afternoon, Enrique Milla testified at the Miami-Dade County Courthouse from his new home in Lima, Peru via Skype. He said he wanted a penile implant to improve his sex life in 2007. “About a year before I realized I had problems,” Milla said through a translator. “I had problems having intimate relations with my wife. As time went by, that problem got worse.”
Milla’s attorney argues that an anesthesiologist overlooked his client’s pre-existing medical conditions, which resulted in Milla having no more external male genitalia. According to the lawyer, Milla should have never been allowed to undergo elective penile implant surgery to treat erectile dysfunction back in August 2007.
