A MI jury awarded a woman $2.9 million in a 9-year-old lawsuit against Owosso Memorial Hospital and Shiawassee Radiology Consultants.
An attorney for Sue Apsey, now 65, claimed a bowel leak she suffered during an ovarian cyst removal went undiscovered for 10 days despite imaging studies that were done.
The situation worsened when she was given barium during subsequent x-rays. “It acted like throwing gas on a bonfire,” said her attorney, Frank Mafrice.
