Nashville knee surgery ends in paralysis after pharmacy mix-up

A routine knee replacement at Ascension Saint Thomas Midtown in Nashville left 72-year-old Glenda Dorton paralyzed from the mid‑back down after a pharmacy mix‑up delivered potassium instead of the spinal anesthetic. Four patients were affected, with three others reportedly treated with contaminated vials before surgeries were halted.
