Ohio patient sues hospital over wrong leg amputation
An Ohio woman is suing a hospital and medical team after waking up from surgery to find her wrong leg amputated, despite procedures intended to prevent such errors. The lawsuit alleges a failure of basic safety protocols, including multiple "time-outs," and claims the surgeon initially marked the correct leg but still performed the amputation on the wrong one. The hospital acknowledged an avoidable surgical event and stated corrective measures have been implemented.
