BALTIMORE – A man alleging a Maryland doctor stapled his rectum shut during an operation — causing him to go without defecating for 17 days — took his federal lawsuit to trial Monday in Baltimore.

Ronald Watkins, 64, of West Virginia, is suing Manuel Casiano, a doctor in Frederick County, for allegedly botching a 2004 surgery that left Watkins with permanent bowel problems.

“The reason for suing Dr. Casiano is very simple: His rectum was stapled shut,” said Julia Lodowski, who with attorney Emily Malarkey is representing Watkins and his wife, Brenda.

Sounds like an open and shut case.

Wobbly Bob, you were reading my mind!

So he was full of sh_t?

Once it was finally fixed and he was able to declinch, how many Courics was it? If it was over 17 Courics, he should submit it to the European Fecal Standards And Measurements to see if it is a record.

....a Maryland doctor stapled his rectum shut during an operation — causing him to go without defecating for 17 days....

This doesn't pass the smell test.

just like Harry Reid.

[Cali Redneck]

Really. This should be easy to prove or disprove. The whole idea makes me cringe though.

I think the patient man may be stretching the truth.

[Tijeras_Slim]

It took this genius 17 days to figure out something was wrong?

Rectum? Damn near killed ‘em!

We have a winner.

This could keep some people from speaking their mind...

Stand back and PULL!!!

But make sure your mouth is closed and you are looking away!

[GOP Poet]

Either way the man is tight lipped about the situation.

[cripplecreek]

Well that’ll make you wobbly Bob.

This type of injury has been in the news a lot. Did you read about the butcher who backed into his meat grinder, and got a little behind in his work?

[Diamond]

Damn! I HATE it when that happens!
