Description
SHORES, JUSTICE. This is a modical malpractice case. Plaintiffs Robert and Cynthia Street brought suit against Dr. A. W. Morris and the City of Anniston, d/b/a anniston Memorial Hospital, to recover damages for injuries caused by an incorrect pathology report. In April of 1974, Ms. Street had a black mole removed and sent to Anniston Memorial Hospital for analysis. The hospital rendered a report, printed on stationery bearing Dr. Morris's name and dated April 15, 1974, which indicated that the mole was nonmalignant. On February 12, 1978, Ms. Street had a lump removed from her right breast which proved to be a malignancy known as melanoma or black-mole cancer. The original slide of the tissue and mole excised in 1974 was re-examined and found to be, in fact, malignant. This action was commenced on August 11, 1978, within six months of the date of the discovery of the melanoma, but more than four years after the erroneous pathology report was issued.
