A medical malpractice lawsuit has settled for $275,000 against the Cleveland VA Medical Center. The malpractice lawsuit came after hospital staff left behind two surgical towels during a kidney removal surgery. The patient, a 47-year old military veteran, had to undergo two additional surgeries as a result of the medical error.
The case was brought under the Federal Tort Claims Act and the settlement was approved by the Honorable James S. Gwin.
