    [942 NYS2d 885] —
   In an action, inter alia, to recover damages for fraud and medical malpractice, etc., the plaintiffs appeal from an order of the Supreme Court, Nassau County (McCarty, III, J.), entered December 10, 2010, which granted the respective motions of the defendants Thomas H. Milhorat, Paolo A. Bolognese, Misao Nishikawa, L. Thierry Remy, Sol Mora, Dora Pinkhasova, John Xi Chen, North Shore-Long Island Jewish Health System, Inc., Chiari Institute, and Harvey Cushing Institutes of Neuroscience, and the defendant Chanland Roonprapunt pursuant to CPLR 3211 (a) (7) to dismiss the third cause of action, which alleged fraud, insofar as asserted against each of them.

Ordered that the order is affirmed, with one bill of costs to the respondents appearing separately and filing separate briefs.

The Supreme Court properly granted the respective motions of the defendants Thomas H. Milhorat, Paolo A. Bolognese, Misao Nishikawa, L. Thierry Remy, Sol Mora, Dora Pinkhasova, John Xi Chen, North Shore-Long Island Jewish Health System, Inc., Chiari Institute, and Harvey Cushing Institutes of Neuroscience, and the defendant Chanland Roonprapunt to dismiss the third cause of action, which alleged fraud, insofar as asserted against each of them since the injuries arising from the alleged fraud are no different from those resulting from the alleged lack of informed consent and malpractice (see Simcuski v Saeli, 44 NY2d 442 [1978]; McNamara v Droesch, 49 AD3d 511 [2008]; Karlin v IVF Am., 239 AD2d 560 [1997], mod on other grounds 93 NY2d 282 [1999]; Luciano v Levine, 232 AD2d 378 [1996]; Spinosa v Weinstein, 168 AD2d 32 [1991]). Skelos, J.P., Dickerson, Leventhal and Cohen, JJ., concur.
