Ordered that the order is affirmed, with costs.

The medical evidence submitted by the appellant failed to establish a prima facie case that the plaintiff did not sustain a serious injury within the meaning of Insurance Law § 5102 (d) (see, Mendola v Demetres, 212 AD2d 515). O’Brien, J. P., Ritter, Friedmann and Goldstein, JJ., concur.
