Malpractice During Colonoscopy

The Maryland Daily Record reports that a Baltimore City jury ordered a doctor to pay $670,000 to a man who required emergency surgery to remove a portion of his colon because of injuries suffered during a routine colonoscopy in 2006.  The doctor allegedly punctured Johnson's colon in several places during the colonscopy  according to the complaint. Johnson was taken to the ER at Siani Hospitalwhere surgeons removed some of his colon (Siani was not named in the lawsuit).
