Patient presented to insured with difficulty walking and complaints of pain and swelling of the right foot. MRI taken showed that there was mild distal anterior tibialis tenosynovitis without tear. Surgical and non-surgical options were discussed and surgery was performed on 3/28/14. Patient was slow to heal post-operatively and another MRI was taken, which showed the patient had a worsening anterior tibial tendon tear. Options were extensively discussed and revision surgery was performed on 10/16/2014. Patient was initially doing well post-operatively. However, one month later began experiencing pain and a CT showed a non-displaced fracture. Patient alleges surgeries were improperly performed, resulting in additional surgery, scarring, loss of function, motion and pain. | |||||
