Actually, the appearance of Bobbit's reattached penis, by the time we got to see it (i.e. his movies, etc.) probably has nothing to do with the outcome of the reattachment surgery. Bobbit wanted to capitalize on the fame of his penis, decided to do porn, and eventually made three movies. However, his manager (Robert Yates) felt the penis was not big enough as reattached, and arranged for Bobbit to have penis enlargement surgery before launching the porn career. Although the news reports were not clear on this, I believe it was actually enlarged twice, the second time after the first two movies. In any event, I've heard the final outcome was a disaster, resulting in a misshapen penis. Personally, I can't believe that after having it lost, then reattached, and actually working normally again, anyone world risk damage by further surgery, but apparently that was the case.
