When Surgery Goes Wrong, We Make It Right
Even the most routine surgical procedure carries risks. Patients trust their surgeons and medical teams to meet the highest standards of care, follow proper protocols, and act with precision. Unfortunately, when errors occur in the operating room, the consequences can be devastating—sometimes permanent, and even life-threatening.
What Constitutes a Surgical Error?
Negligent errors in the operating room are not just “unfortunate outcomes.” They are preventable mistakes that occur when proper medical standards are not followed. Some examples include:
- Unnecessary surgery
- Operating on the wrong body part or patient
- Retained surgical instruments (such as sponges or tools left inside the body)
- Anesthesia errors leading to brain injury or death
- Nerve, tissue, or organ damage caused by negligence
- Post-operative infections due to improper sterilization or care
Mistakes made by doctors or nurses in the operating room can have long-lasting and profound effects on patients.
