Court of Appeals of Georgia September 11, 1987, 74383 (Karafotias v. Coyne)

Pope, Judge.

This appeal is from the trial court’s denial of appellant/dentist’s motion for summary judgment in this dental malpractice action. We granted appellant’s petition for interlocutory appeal to consider whether she is entitled to summary judgment by virtue of the one-year statute of limitation contained in OCGA § 9-3-72 applicable to foreign objects left in a patient’s body.
