A well-planned and well-executed demonstration of a surgical procedure by the defendant surgeon in a recent med mal case, assisted by his attorney, may have been a key factor in the jury’s verdict. The surgeon, Dr. J. Eduardo Corso, had been sued in DeKalb County State Court by the family of Arlene Bailey after Bailey’s death resulting from complications arising during a catheterization procedure performed by Dr. Corso. Larry Bailey et al. v. J. Eduardo Corso, MD et al. (12A45372).
On August 12, 2011, Dr. Corso performed a procedure to insert a catheter in Arlene Bailey to enable her to receive dialysis treatments. This type of catheter placement is routinely used with dialysis patients, and Dr. Corso had successfully performed the operation several hundred times previously. In fact, he had inserted another catheter in Bailey three days earlier on August 9, but the earlier catheter did not function properly and needed to be replaced.
