Case Details

A gynecologist/surgeon at the Cleveland Clinic performed a wrong-site and unnecessary surgery on a 41-year-old woman. The doctor operated on her left labia for a cyst, despite the patient only having issues on her right labia and the left side being painless. The surgery created a hole, causing pain, chronic infections, and painful intercourse.

Additional Notes

The jury found the doctor negligent for performing a wrong site and unnecessary surgery.
