Man with 132-pound scrotum dies in Las Vegas hospital

Wesley Warren Jr., who attracted worldwide sympathy and ridicule for having a scrotum that grew to 132 pounds before it was surgically removed last year, died Friday at University Medical Center in Las Vegas, the Review Journal reports. He was 49.
The cause of death was not released, but friend Joey Hurtado said he did not think the operation performed last April by Dr. Joel Gelman, who heads the Center for Reconstructive Urology at the University of California, Irvine, played a role, the report said.
“There are a lot of shows about makeovers, but this is a real makeover,” Gelman told the Review-Journal after he and three other California physicians donated their expertise to the surgery.
After Warren agreed to be interviewed by the Review-Journal in 2012, his plight captured the attention of more than a million readers around the world through the newspaper’s website and drew the offer from Gelman.
“He was basically trapped by his own body for years,” Hurtado said.
