4-year-old boy given vasectomy during hernia surgery, lawsuit claims
June 14, 2022
"A surgeon in Houston gave a partial vasectomy to a 4-year-old boy who had gone in to get a hernia operation, according report.
The young patient from Fort Bend County, had been admitted to Texas Children’s Hospital in August 2021 to undergo laparoscopic surgery for the hernia, KDFW, Fox 4 said.
But somehow, in the course of the procedure, Dr. Susan Jarosz “cut the wrong piece of anatomy,” the family’s personal injury attorney, Randy Sorrels, told local television.
“The surgeon, we think, cut accidentally the vas deferens — one of the tubes that carries reproductive semen in it. It could affect this young man for the rest of his life,” Sorrels told Fox 4.
A vasectomy can be reversed with another surgery to reconnect the vas deferens tubes.
Jarosz, who also serves as assistant professor of pediatric urology at Baylor College of Medicine, has no history of medical malpractice or formal complaints about her work.
