What are some cases where a fractured sternum and a tear in the left rotator cuff result in anxiety and depression?

British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from Gauthier v Chan, 2019 BCSC 1627 (CanLII):

Of the cases referred to me, the most similar in my view is Salame v. Sutherland, 2016 BCSC 1610, where a similar injury, a fractured sternum, was accompanied by a left rotator cuff tear together with soft tissue injuries resulting in chronic pain. There, however, the plaintiff suffered from anxiety and depressive symptoms.
