Diagnostic Information

Final Diagnosis For Which Treatment Was Sought Including Patient's Actual Condition
Plaintiff alleges delay by Dr. Tran in diagnosing and treating an anastomotic leak post laparoscopic colostomy closure with take down. Plaintiff had significant post op complications, including sepsis; A-fib, multiple codes (3) with resuscitation; renal failure; placement of a tracheostomy; and required intubation and mechanical ventilation. Dr. Tran does not believe there was a delay in diagnosis or treatment, as patientÃƒâ€šÃ‚Â¿s deteriorating condition prevented return to OR, and other physicians were in agreement with the decision making, as to the limitations on diagnostic testing and surgery.

Laparoscopic colostomy closure with take down
Diagnostic Code :
Misdiagnosis Made, If Any, Of Patient's Actual Condition
