Description
1 On January 3, 1958, claimant admittedly sustained an accidental personal injury to his back which arose out of and in the course of his employment. Although he continued to perform work, he was in need of medical attention, which in form of heat therapy was furnished to him at the plant dispensary. When the condition grew progressively worse and intense pain persisted without any relief, claimant consulted Dr. M., an orthopedist, who advised him that corrective surgical procedure was required to alleviate the effects of his injury. On employers refusal to furnish the same, claimant, on November 12, 1958, entered the hospital and submitted to an operation by Dr. M. It consisted of a removal of the lumbosacral disc followed by a fasciotomy and fusion of the lumbosacral joint. This surgery, the record shows, was performed by Dr. M. while claimants application for necessary medical treatment was being considered by the State Industrial Court but prior to the determination thereof by a final order of the trial tribunal.
