Principal Injury Giving Rise To The Claim
Patient presented to the insured on 2/19/13 with complaints of painful bunions bilaterally. X-rays were ordered, and treatment options were discussed with surgery subsequently being performed on the right foot on 3/14/13, and the left foot on 3/20/13. X-rays made four days postop of the right foot showed good correction of the bunion, but the Weil osteotomy was rotated laterally. Subsequent post-op x-rays of the left foot showed adequate alignment and positioning; however as of 4/19/13, the right first metatarsal demonstrated medial rotation. Insured advised the patient that surgery may need to be performed in the future to correct this particular problem. Throughout her post-op course, patient continued to experience pain involving both feet, although more so on the right, and largely due to minor injuries that were sustained. Patient was last seen on 6/10/13, at which point her pain was decreased on the left, and her symptoms were more isolated to the right second metatarsal head. Patient claims she suffered a non-union and alleges insured¿s surgery was improperly performed.
Severity Of Injury
Temporary: Minor - Infections, misset fracture, fall in hospital. Recovery delayed.
