The complaint further states that the defendants were grossly negligent in initiating these high-risk procedure on the plaintiff due to her advanced osteoperodic condition, which according to US and German standards precluded her from being a candidate for such a surgery.


The piece states quite a bit however re merit in terms of should or should not have performed surgery at all ~ if the patient actually had advanced osteoporosis re values accepted both here and abroad and it was known.. why was surgery done at all if risks were explained pre op.. was that overlooked?

I'm not saying this case has merit.. but that one point if actually true seems like a reason at least not to do surgery even if there's no actual case.

BTW, I think a case can have a degree of merit even if it's not going anywhere~ of course that depends on the actual facts/findings.
