Description

On November 16, 1973, Dr. Leonidas Annest, a general surgeon, removed the appendix and fallopian tubes of the 29-year-old plaintiff, Joyce Thornton. She brought this action, claiming physician malpractice for the unnecessary removal of her tubes and the resulting sterilization. In support of her appeal from a jury verdict in favor of defendant, plaintiff assigns error to the denial of her motion for a directed verdict, to the denial of her motion for a partial directed verdict on the issue of whether an informed consent was given, and to three evidentiary rulings. We affirm.
