Woman Who Had Both Breasts Removed After Biopsy Error!!
« on: October 04, 2007, 11:37:53 PM »
A woman who had both breasts removed in error because of a biopsy result that was later found not to be hers, appeared on Good Morning America earlier today, Thursday, and talked about her story.

Darrie Eason, a 35 year old woman from Long Island, New York, had a double mastectomy after a tissue sample from a lab based in New York came back positive for breast cancer.

Doctors later told her she did not have breast cancer and "never did".

Neither did I, but goes to show how much care we need to put into the practice of medicine to prevent the repetition of this sort of thing...
