Article posted on:02/12/2008
As reported in the Daily Pennsylvanian, the mother of a man who died after he received the cancerous lungs of a smoker during a transplant has filed a lawsuit against the Pennsylvania hospital that performed the procedure. In the lawsuit, Emma Grier claims that doctors at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania knowingly misrepresented the identity of the lung donor. The complaint also names the doctor who determined the lungs to be suitable for transplant and the organ donation program that provided the lungs. Call the lawyers at Silverman, Thompson, Slutkin & White if you believe you or a loved one has been the victim of a similar misrepresentation or fraud in the context of organ donation.
