Description

Daniel N. Burnside commenced this action against the Evangelical Deaconess Hospital, Dr. Jack D. Spankus, Dr. Raymond Chi-Ta-Tse
and Dr. R. R. Brazy, for alleged malpractice in the performance of a laminectomy and discectomy and a catheterization. At
the Conclusion of the plaintiff's case the court granted the defendants' motion for a directed verdict. From the judgment
dismissing the complaint, Burnside appeals. Burnside, thirty-five years old and a machinist for fifteen years, first experienced pain in his back in 1951 and has had
continual back trouble since 1955. In the spring of 1966, he consulted several doctors but treatment failed to relieve the
pain. In September of 1966, he was referred to the defendant Dr. Jack D. Spankus, an orthopedic surgeon who on September 11,
1966, performed a laminectomy and discectomy on a herniated disc between the fourth and fifth lumbar vertebrae. The purpose
of this operation was to remove the disc or fragments thereof which were pressing on the nerve root. Instead of being a soft,
spongy cushion, Burnside's disc was hardened. When Dr. Spankus finished removing the parts of the disc and before closing
the opening he could see no remaining loose pieces of the disc.
