Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, First Department.

Decided March 19, 2020.


In this action where plaintiff alleges medical malpractice based on the theories that she underwent an unnecessary vaginal hysterectomy which caused injury, and that defendants did not obtain her informed consent, defendants made a prima facie showing that the procedure did not cause urinary incontinence. Defendants submitted the report of an expert who attributed all of plaintiff's urinary issues to a later diagnosis of chronic interstitial cystitis (IC).
