Hospitals performing sex-change probed Posted: 26 Jun 2011 10:19 PM PDT NEW DELHI: Indian authorities are probing doctors and hospitals involved in sex-change surgery performed on young girls in the central state of Madhya Pradesh. The National Commission for Protection of Child Rights (NCPCR) has directed the state officials to investigate genitoplasty cases in Indore, a commercial city, after the media exposed parents wanting male children resorted to such illegal surgery. "There should be a medical board to decide if the surgery is medically required. "It has to be a responsible decision made by a panel and not a decision between a parent and a doctor," said Prof Gautam Sen, a member of the board of governors of the Medical Council of India, as reported by Hindustan Times. Genitoplasty is a corrective surgery performed on those born with genital abnormality, but in Indore it was being exploited. According to the newspaper, young girls between one and five years old had undergone genitoplasty and about 200 to 300 cases were performed in Indore. Each surgery costs about RM10,000. Alarmed by the incidents, NCPCR has urged state authorities to compile data on medical practitioners and hospitals involved in genitoplasty. -- BERNAMA Full Feed Generated by Get Full RSS, sponsored by USA Best Price.
