Case Details

Medical malpractice settlement for a 15-year-old who lost her ovaries and entered menopause prematurely due to medical negligence during radiation therapy. Doctors failed to protect her ovaries from radiation.

Additional Notes

During radiation therapy, a technician forgot to place a protective 'block' for the ovaries, and the doctor failed to notice its absence. This resulted in the radiation killing her ovaries, causing sterility and premature menopause at age 15.
