Patient says hospital staff failed to spot her broken back
Heather Walsingham, from Portsmouth, was X-rayed after breaking her leg in a fall but said doctors missed the fact that she also had a fractured spine.
The injury, which she said was only discovered six days later, kept her bed-bound for months.
The Queen Alexandra Hospital said it deeply regrets what happened.
