The plaintiff, a woman with a history of a back problems due to years of working on her feet as a home health aide, decided to undergo surgery to alleviate her pain. Despite red flags from pre-surgery nerve monitoring, the operating surgeons failed to heed the warning signs of a potential spinal cord injury.  When the plaintiff awoke from surgery she could not move her legs and was diagnosed with paraplegia. The case was settled prior to trial.
  • Within a month of bringing suit in Kings County, N.Y., Supreme Court, Ms. Montesano obtained a $1.3 million settlement from a gynecologist who failed to properly diagnose and treat a Brooklyn woman’s uterine cancer. The plaintiff, a 58-year-old retiree, underwent hysterectomy surgery due to a history of fibroid tumors. The gynecologist diagnosed Stage 1 uterine cancer within a polyp, but told the woman that her cancer was entirely removed during surgery, and there was no need for any further medical treatment or monitoring.  Ms. Montesano marshaled opinions from experts in the fields of gynecologic oncology and radiation oncology who said the gynecologist deviated from good and accepted medical practices by failing to advise the plaintiff to seek additional consultations or treatment. Without treatment, the plaintiff was later diagnosed with Stage 4 uterine cancer.
