An Australian man who underwent a sex change operation then reverted to living as a man said Tuesday he was suing doctors and public health authorities for damages in a world-first case.
Alan Finch, 37, claims he was mistakenly diagnosed as a transsexual when he went for treatment at a transgender clinic attached to Melbourne’s Monash University at the age of 19. In 1988 at the age of 21 he had a sex-change operation, which involved amputation of his penis and testicles. In 1997 he reverted to living as a man.
