Case Details
Veteran's estate settled a medical malpractice lawsuit against the VA after a 65-year-old veteran died following substandard medical care during a gallbladder removal procedure.
Additional Notes
Doctors decided to remove only a portion of the gallbladder, and the veteran died ten days after emergency surgery. An expert witness stated VA physicians violated standard care by cutting into the gallbladder before identifying surrounding structures.
