German surgeons operate on woman's bowels instead of leg

When it comes to a surgical mistake, this incident may take the cake: A 78-year-old German woman went into the hospital last month to have surgery on her leg. Because of a mixup, Frankenpost reports that she left the Hochfranken-Klinik in Mnchberg, Germany, with an artificial anus.

The paper says some members of the surgical team have been punished in connection with the series of mistakes that led them to operate on the wrong patient.

Prosecutors are said to be looking into the incident. As for the unidentified patient, she still needs knee surgery and plans to file a lawsuit.

By the way, there is such a thing as an "artificial anus." Shosaburo Abe and Yoshikatsu Abe filed a patent application in 1991.

Here are some of the headlines we came across while researching this posting:
• Bit of a bummer
• Pensioner gets bum's rush on op
• Leg operation turns into a pain in the A..
• Hey doc, leave my butt alone!
• Leg op woman gets bum deal


(rofl)(rlaugh)(hahaspit)(rofl2)

I mean yes, this is a TERRIBLE story for the lady, but you have to admit, that's a ridiculously funny misunderstanding.
 
lol i saw this before....I didnt realize that there was such a thing as an artificial anus....

I wonder if they make keychains w/ them like they do for neuticles...
 
(rlaugh) HAHAHAHAHHAA only you would want an anus on your keyring. Only you.
 
Dude, you need an anus on your keychain, 'cause you drive like ass!

;)
 
Ah, **** you guys. ....in your artificial anus.
 
you'd like that wouldnt you? I'll make sure to have it set to mazimum tightness so you dont have to worry about not "measuring up"

;)

That brings up a good point. Is there a built in tensioner? Left for tight right for "oops I think the exlax is kicking in"?
 
she needs a bumper sticker:

"I went to the hospital...

... and all i got was this lousy a$$hole"
 
eeni meeni miney mole..........we're not really sure which one of you patients needs a new hole. How exactly could you tell a fake one from the real deal?
