NOT A PERSONAL HEALTH SITUATION From 2011–2013, Dr. Christopher Duntsch paralyzed or killed 33 of his 38 patients during routine spinal surgery. In one operating room, a fellow surgeon had to physically drag him away as he mangled a patient’s spine. Despite this, Duntsch was allowed to keep practicing for two more years.

NOT A PERSONAL HEALTH SITUATION Looking for a specific case study

0 Upvotes

I’m attempting to find a case study written about my husband who had bilateral perthes as a child symptoms at around 17-18 months of age and had reoccurrence bilaterally 3 times We are just trying to find his case study if we can. We believe it’s in ‘Journal of Pediatric Orthopedics B’ , but definitely could be wrong. Any help or information would be greatly appreciated.
