  • The care forgot the referral – the patient had to amputate the penis

    A healthcare center in Gothenburg has filed a Lex Maria report after a patient was exposed to a serious medical injury, writes the news agency Siren.

    During a visit to the health center in 2020, the man told about problems with the foreskin. Due to several mistakes in healthcare, the man was only examined for the problem three years later. Among other things, a referral to a urologist’s office was forgotten.

    At the time when the man received his examination, the doctor immediately suspected that the man had cancer and judged that his penis needed to be amputated.

    In the care center’s Lex Maria notification to the Health and Care Inspectorate, it is stated that the referral was initially sent to the wrong person. Later, the referral was also not sent through the standardized fast track that is supposed to speed up care for patients suspected of having cancer.
