Third Spine Surgery (Part 1): Surgical Decompression and Stabilization of Pseudoarthrosis - Medical Illustration, Human Anatomy Drawing
This exhibit shows the first part of a complex spine surgery which begins depicting an epidural granulation mass formation impinging the spinal cord and nerves at T10 to T12, also there is a large bone fragment severely compressing the left side of the spinal cord at T11 (pseudoarthrosis). The surgical repair consist of removal of existing hardware except the screws at T10 and T11, placement of new screws at L2 and L3, decortication of bone, placement of sponges and bone graft to augment bone fusion mass. Also the lamina is removed at T10, T11 and T12 exposing the granulation mass.
"I would like to thank all of you at Medical Legal Art for all the
assistance you provided. It was a result of the excellent, timely work
that we were able to conclude the case successfully.
I feel very confident that our paths will cross again."

"I wanted to thank you for the terrific job you did illustrating my client's
injuries. The case was settled at the pre-suit mediation, and I believe a
good part of the success we had was due to the medical legal art you
prepared.
Your work received the ultimate compliment at the conclusion of the mediation. The hospital risk manager took the exhibit with them at the
conclusion of mediation, and will be using it to train nurses on how to
prevent bed sores..."

"At 3 PM it hit me--I needed exhibits of a tracheostomy, a coronary artery
bypass and a deep vein thrombosis--all in time for a for-trial video
deposition the next day. The Doe Report had each exhibit on line. In
addition, I ran across an exhibit I hadn't even thought of: reduced ejection
fraction after a heart attack. Because this was a video deposition, I could
use the e-mail version of the medical exhibit, print it on my color copier,
and let the camera zoom in. For $400, less than one blow-up by one of The
Doe Report's competitors, I got four first-rate exhibits in less than a day.
The Doe Report saved me time and money."
"For us, the defining feature of effective demonstrative evidence is
whether, by itself, the piece will tell the story of the case. Medical legal
Art provides our firm with illustrations and animations that are clear and
persuasive. Their exhibits tell the story in a way that allows the jury to
understand a very complex subject, very quickly."
