An Alabama husband died on a Florida operating table when the doctor mistakenly removed the man’s liver during surgery before the surgeon attempted to pass off the organ as an “enlarged spleen,” according to a lawyer representing the man’s widow.
William Bryan died on a Florida hospital operating table when a doctor wrongfully removed his liver on Aug. 21, 2024.General Surgeon Dr. Thomas Shaknovsky and Dr. Christopher Bacani, the hospital’s Chief Medical Officer, persuaded the reluctant family for Bryan to undergo surgery at the hospital or he “could experience serious complications if he left the hospital,” the law firm claims.
After erroneously removing Bryan’s liver, the general surgeon labeled the organ as a “spleen,” which was only identified as a liver after the man’s death.Shaknovsky proceeded to explain to Beverly Bryan, that her husband’s “‘spleen’ was so diseased that it was four times bigger than usual and had migrated to the other side of body.”
Atlanta hospital allegedly loses 28-square-inch chunk of man’s skull — and bills him $19K for replacement: lawsuit Beverly Bryan says she is pushing for both civil and criminal proceedings related to her husband’s death. “We take allegations like this very seriously, and our leadership team is performing a thorough investigation into this event. Ascension Sacred Heart Emerald Coast has a longstanding history of providing safe, quality care since the hospital opened its doors in 2003,” the hospital said in statement“Patient safety is and remains our number one priority. Our thoughts and prayers remain with the family. We hold the privacy of our patients in the highest regard.
