Docs fight to save man's [censored]

April 24, 2007
HORRIFIED diners watched in shock as a maniac sliced off his manhood
in a crowded pizza restaurant.
The 35-year-old Pole burst into the Zizzi eaterie in central London
and grabbed a knife from the kitchen.
He then leapt on a table and dropped his trousers as customers fled
screaming.
A witness said: "There was blood everywhere. Everyone ran out of the
place."
Surgeons battling to save the severed [censored] tried to sew it back on in
the first UK op of its kind.
Quick-thinking cops recovered the organ from the restaurant floor
after subduing its crazed owner with CS gas.
The manhood was packed in ice and taken with the man to London's St
Thomas's Hospital.
A spokesman there confirmed doctors had attempted to re-attach it, but
the hospital refused to say whether the procedure had been successful.
The 200-seater restaurant on The Strand in central London was packed
with runners and spectators from Sunday's Marathon.
Sales rep Stuart McMahon, who was eating supper with his girlfriend,
said: "This guy came running in then charged into the kitchen, got a
massive knife and started waving it about.
"Everyone was screaming and running out as he jumped on a table,
dropped his trousers and popped his penis out. Then he cut it off. I
couldn't believe it.
"The staff were really upset and there was blood everywhere."
Police sped to the scene and restrained and handcuffed the man.
Several diners were treated for shock by ambulance crews.
A spokesman for the Zizzi restaurant chain said: "It all happened in a
matter of seconds and was obviously extremely frightening and
distressing. The manager and staff bravely helped evacuate the
restaurant."
Last night cops were trying to establish the Pole's background. He had
left no identification in the clothing he discarded. A source said:
"We believe he's Polish and 35. We don't know if he has a history of
mental illness, but he's clearly not a well boy."
A Met Police spokeswoman said: "Officers arrived to find a 35-year-old
man with severe self-inflicted injuries.
"No other people were injured and the man was not arrested. He is now
stable in hospital."
The man will be assessed by psychiatrists following treatment for his
wounds and is expected to be held under the Mental Health Act for his
own safety.
The diner remained shut yesterday for a clean-up operation. It was due
to re-open last night.
The Royal College of Surgeons confirmed this was the first time that
anyone in the UK had had their penis sewed back on.
After controlling the blood loss, doctors had to repair the blood
supply and reanimate the tissue by rejoining the arteries and veins
under a microscope.
Top Italian plastic surgeon Dr Nicolo Scuderi said of the operating
technique: "We don't know how much sensitivity and function will be
regained."
