A woman who entered University of California at Irvine (UCI) Medical Center in 2005 for hip surgery, ended up with chronic pain in following the procedure. The 30-year-old victim sued the OC hospital for her injuries, and the jury found that the hospital and the doctor performing the surgery neglected to inform and warn the woman about potentially life-altering complications. The trial ended in an award for $2.9 million; however, due to award ceiling caps in California the woman will likely receive around $250,000.
