Can Lobotomy Be Used To Commit Rape Which Can Be Detected At A Later Stage?

Has the use of a lobotomy ever been used to commit rape? Can a lobotomy be detected 25 years later if it had been done? A friend claims to have been a victim of rape and the rapists used an ice pick lobotomy to make her more manageable. Is that possible? She claims she wasn t taking drugs but had been drinking when this occurred if that matters.

Homeopath,  's  Response

Hello and welcome to HCM forum ,I shall be happy to help you in the best of my capability .

A lobotomy is a highly precise psychoneurosurgical procedure in which the nerve pathways in a lobe or lobes of the brain are severed from those in other areas. It is done only in rare and severe psychiatric cases where conventional methods do not yield the desired results .

It is possible to identify a post lobotomy procedure through an MRI of the brain.

I disagree with your friend ,an ice pick would hardly be the the right tool for a lobotomy .If an Ice pick was to be used it would cause serious and pemanent damage not only to her brain but also visible lacerations and scarring too .
A lobotomy effect is easily visible to the attendants as there is a very marked change in behaviour and affect of the patient .

You should take your friend to a Neurologist as she seems to be suffering from
some definite psychiatric disorder .

Hope it helps .
