Complications with Gastric Bypass Surgery: Did Medical Malpractice Occur?

Attorney Note: At 3:55, Attorney Warshauer wishes to let viewers know that when he said "stenosis” he intended to say "anastomosis”. Stenosis is a narrowing of a canal, commonly seen in spinal anatomy with which Mr. Warshauer is quite familiar, whereas an anastomosis is the connection of two bodies as is done in gastric bypass surgery, with which he is also quite familiar. He apologizes for any confusion this might have caused. Gastric bypass surgery can cause serious complications if the medical team is not careful. A common complication is an anastomotic leak, which involves fluid from the gastrointestinal tract leaking into the sterile abdominal cavity. This could then lead to sepsis, which is tough to recover from. We spoke to Michael Warshauer, an Atlanta attorney with years of experience handling medical malpractice claims. He explains that doctors can be liable if they make mistakes that lead to leaks and sepsis. Warshauer is a lawyer with Warshauer Law Group who has been named a Georgia Super Lawyer for nine years running.
