It's true that Dorland's defines that way, but
Subject: It's true that Dorland's defines that way, but
that doesn't mean the surgical excision of a lymph or any blood vessel could not correctly be referred to as a vasectomy. It may not be common, and it may not be the textbook definition, but the term does not have to exclusively apply to the vas deferens. If you were going to refer to the surgical excision of a lymphatic or other general vessel in a single word, what word would you use? Anyway, I'm not arguing whether or not the dictation was accurate, I'm just saying if that is what was truly said and context did not support a more general use of the term, then the real boob is the physician who dictated it, and if that is what he/she said, and it is clear that is what was said, then I would send it through as well and let the physician confront his/her own potential error in proofing the report and correct it then if it truly needs to be corrected. Patient safety is not involved in this case, so if it is an error and the physician does not take the time to do their job and proof read the report and correct it, then the egg is on their face, which is where it belongs anyway.
