The Boston Globe (8/2, Saltzman) reports that a medical malpractice lawyer filed last week filed a lawsuit against Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center on behalf of a patient who underwent “unwarranted” prostate surgery after a hospital pathologist “had mistaken his [biopsy] slides for those of another patient who did have prostate cancer.” Andrew C. Meyer Jr. filed another complaint against a private laboratory in Lexington on behalf of another patient “whose situation was the reverse.” That specimen, which was analyzed by Strata Pathology Services, came back negative, but eight months later “a second biopsy, examined at a different lab, revealed that he had cancer.” Meyer said “the biopsy mix-ups illustrate that mistakes in the lab can also have devastating consequences.”
