Description
1 In the year 1978 the plaintiff, Ronald L. Anderson, consulted Dr. Don ODonoghue for medical treatment for his knees. After more conservative treatment failed, the physician recommended surgical removal of cartilage from both knees. Plaintiff was admitted to St. Anthony Hospital. The following day surgery was performed. The surgical procedure on the right leg was successful with Dr. John R. McCarroll assisting. The operation on the left knee was performed by Dr. McCarroll at the request of Dr. ODonoghue. During this procedure, Dr. McCarroll severed the politeal artery and vein. The severance was discovered during the conclusion of the surgical procedure, and Dr. Carey was summoned to repair the severed vessels. After this procedure plaintiff exhibited no pulse in the leg but this was attributed to a spasm. An evening examination by Drs. Carey and McCarroll revealed no pulse in the leg again. The following morning, a corrective procedure was undertaken, but gangrene had set in and as a result the left leg was amputated six inches above the knee.
