According to the New York Post, a doctor in Florida was accused of removing a patient’s liver from the liver incorrectly, leading to the “immediate and severe death” of an Alabama man, age 70. According to an evacuation order issued on September 24 by Florida Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo, the doctor, Thomas J. Shaknovsky, was found to have committed “repeated severe medical errors” and reportedly falsified medical data to conceal the fatal error.
William Bryan was taken to Ascension Sacred Heart Emerald Coast Hospital on August 21 after suffering severe abdominal pain while on vacation with his family in Miramar Beach. After Dr. Shaknovsky insisted on him, Bryan eventually agreed to have a hysterectomy after an image revealed an enlarged heart. Despite first refusing surgery, Image revealed an expanded spleen.
Hospital users doubted Shaknovsky’s ability to perform complicated operation, as the crew operated with a reduced “skeleton workers”. According to the physician general’s directive, Shaknovsky began the process laparoscopically, a surgical method that uses specialized instruments to address conditions in the stomach or hip, but quickly switched to an empty operation due to poor visibility as a result of Bryan’s “distended colon and blood in the abdomen.” But, Shaknovsky failed to report this choice properly.
Shaknovsky allegedly started removing what he thought was the heart before moving on to handling the heart. The physician is said to have severed many muscles attached to the heart,” that’s scary”, he said, after he felt a signal under his hand. After that, he fired a clinical pen into a vessel, which caused a hemorrhage that caused Bryan to go into respiratory arrest.
Running room staff began emergency efforts, performing CPR and suctioning blood, but while the team worked to preserve Bryan, Shaknovsky continued to analyze the liver, later removing the organ, which weighed 4.6 pounds. Testimony said that Shaknovsky insisted it was the spleen, leaving team” frightened” and” sick to their stomach”.
According to Shaknovsky, Bryan passed away from a renal artery aneurysm. According to reports, he apparently pressured medical staff to deliver the liver to pathology and label it as a spleen. Additionally, the order stated that Shaknovsky repeatedly claimed Bryan had died from a renal arteries aneurysm in addition to the three previous visits.
Surgeon public Ladapo criticized Shaknovsky’s activities, saying,” Each commitment severed was another opportunity for Dr. Shaknovsky to recognize he was handling the wrong organ.”
Bryan’s suicide has been ruled a crime, and his relatives is expected to report a fraud complaint.
