The inaugural issue of Massachusetts Medical Law Report. Just got this in the mail today and there are some pretty interesting malpractice cases (the link is in .pdf format):
* a 10-year old girl loses her ovary when a CT scan isn’t done early enough, despite several ER visits.
* a primary care physician settles for over half a million dollars when a patient who died of colon cancer didn’t return fecal occult cards.
* a psychiatrist settles for $300,000 when he failed to warn against priapism when he prescribed Trazadone.
