Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

David Reimer was a patient who underwent ablatio penis (loss of his penis) during a circumcision procedure as an infant. In an attempt to address the psychological and social difficulties he faced growing up without a penis, Reimer underwent phalloplasty (the surgical construction of a penis) and later a mastectomy (surgical removal of breast tissue) to reverse feminization caused by high doses of estrogen treatment. Therefore, the best choice is E, as it includes both phalloplasty and mastectomy, which were the surgical interventions Reimer received.
