A 61-year-old cancer patient identified as Andrew Lane, has lost most of his p*nis to a flesh-eating superbug after routine surgery, and is reportedly taking legal action against the hospital.

According to a report by Dailymail, the man had contracted necrotising fasciitis - a potentially fatal infection - following an operation to remove his prostate gland. He was left fighting for his life at Southend Hospital, Essex, but managed to pull through and survive.

However, his genitals were so badly damaged that he lost most of his manhood and is now no longer able to have s*x, as so much diseased tissue had to be removed that it also left him with a protruding stomach, where the outer tissue had been 'eaten' away.

The man spent eight weeks in hospital following the incident in March 2013 and said he has only recently started to come to terms with his injuries, and is now taking legal action against Southend University Hospital NHS Foundation Trust over claims that his bowel was punctured during the original operation.

Narrated his horrific ordeal, he said;

He said: 'It has just been a horrendous experience. I thought I was going to die. That night I was taken to theatre three times while the surgeons took more and more tissue away.

'I lost from my belly button to just above the groin and I've not got much left of a penis. I was super-fit before all this. I had a good body, but now I look like I'm nine months pregnant. I can't ever bear to look at myself naked.

'The most difficult bit is not being able to have sex with my wife anymore. We're a normal couple who enjoyed it as part of a healthy relationship and I do miss that.'

Lane, who married his long-term partner Sue after being discharged from hospital, said he felt unable to return to his job as an architectural draftsman and now works as a carer.
