Diagnostic Information

Final Diagnosis For Which Treatment Was Sought Including Patient's Actual Condition
The patient was admitted to Bayfront Medical Center subsequent to a motor vehicle crash in which she suffered internal injuries. Dr. Jacobson interpreted a computed tomography angiogram of the patient's thorax to investigate a possible descending aortic pseudo-aneurysm.
Operation, Diagnostic, Or Treatment Procedure Rendered Causing The Injury
Dr. Jacobson interpreted a computed tomography angiogram of the patient's thorax to investigate a possible descending aortic pseudo-aneurysm. Dr. Jacobson interpreted the films as showing healing fractures of the right clavicle and several right ribs, interval improvement in bibasilar pulmonary contusions, stable ductus bump, and, ultimately, no appreciable dissection.
Diagnostic Code :
Misdiagnosis Made, If Any, Of Patient's Actual Condition
The patient's estate alleged that Dr. Jacobson did not identify a diaphragmatic laceration.
Principal Injury Giving Rise To The Claim
During the patient's hospitalization, two prior CT angiograms were obtained and neither suggested any injury to the diaphragm. Dr. Jacobson's care and treatment of the patient was reviewed by nationally-renowned expert radiologist Michael Federle, M.D. of Stanford University School of Medicine, who strongly supported the accuracy of Dr. Jacobson's interpretation of the subject films. The medical examiner's testimony also corroborated that the spleen and stomach did not herniate through the diaphragm until after the CTA, which was interpreted by Dr. Jacobson.
Severity Of Injury
Permanent: Death.
