Case History

Medical Misdiagnosis

Practice Area: Medical Malpractice

Description: Robert B came to the Emergency Room with severe back pain and a history of an infection. He was admitted to the hospital and the medical diagnosis of a probable spinal epidural abscess was made.This is an infection that can seed in the spinal column adjacent to the spinal cord and requires emergency surgery. Mr. B needed an immediate MRI to confirm the diagnosis, but the hospital's MRI could not accommodate him. The hospital had no arrangements in place to obtain an 'open' MRI and surgery to repair the abscess was delayed for five days. Robert B became a paraplegic as a result. We were able to obtain a significant settlement in excess of $6 Million for Robert B.

Outcome: 6 + Million
