Florida doctor indicted and accused of removing patient's liver instead of spleen in fatal surgery. [View all]
Not the first time for this quack.
Prosecutors allege that on Aug. 21, 2024, during what was scheduled to be a laparoscopic splenectomy, Shaknovsky accidentally removed the victim's liver instead of his spleen. The move resulted in "catastrophic blood loss and the patient’s death on the operating table," a press release said.
