The man's leg was amputated above the knee after delays in referring his case, his solicitor says.
A man who had his right leg amputated after a developing blood clots following surgery has received £1.2m in compensation.
It was successful, but the following day the patient, who was then 59, complained of numbness and pain in his right leg and a coldness in his foot. Despite surgery the condition worsened and a decision was made to carry out a below knee amputation. Further complications, including developing sepsis, meant a second operation to amputate above the knee was required.Image source,"I know I owe the doctors for what they did in saving my life with the treatment of my cancer, but nurses said to me that I would be back at work within three months.
