RI Car Accident With Spondylolisthesis Injury Resulting In Surgery

Toll Gate Road in Warwick, Rhode Island is highly traveled with many intersecting roads; however it does not have many traffic lights or regulatory signs. In this case, it involved a 3 vehicle rear end crash at red light.

Our client was a 57 year old very active grandmother who was not at fault and in immediate back pain.

In the immediate aftermath of the crash, our client presented to her primary care physician’s office where she was then referred to a spine center.

An MRI established lumbar spinal stenosis and spondylolisthesis (bone in spine slips out of place). She was then referred to orthopedics who referred her to Physical Therapy.

But after attending physical therapy for 21 weeks with little to no relief, she returned to the orthopedic physician and surgery was scheduled. Our client had surgery for a laminectomy fusion and received 22 staples.

After, her laminectomy fusion, she was unable to help babysit her grandson, drive for 4 weeks or take care of household duties such as cleaning or doing laundry. Our client was left with a prominent 3.5 inch scar in the middle of her back.

Do I Have A Personal Injury Case If I Have Pre-existing Injuries?

At the Bottaro Law Firm, LLC, we have combined decades of experience with motor vehicle personal injury cases, including where clients have underlying medical conditions.

In this case, our client had an extensive history of prior back pain. She had previously received many steroid and epidural injections to try to relieve this pain. At one point, it was even recommended that she should undergo lumbar surgery for spondylolisthesis but it was deferred at that time.

This crash had aggravated her previous injury causing the need to move forward with the laminectomy fusion.

Our legal team ensured we had all of her previous medical records and dug in deep to better understand the underlying issues at hand. This helps us learn more about our clients and the extent of their injuries. We were able to use, the medical chronology to combat any of the insurance companies rebuttals along with the legal research regarding aggravation of an underlying medical condition.
