All surgeries have risks associated with them, and sometimes injury is unavoidable during surgery. Still patients should feel confident that their surgeon has a thorough understanding of the surgical procedure and of the surrounding anatomy. Incompetent surgeons can cause serious harm to patients.
Injury to blood vessels (e.g., cut, puncture, or laceration) can occur during surgery. Blood will spill out of the vessel causing internal bleeding, which can lead to pain, fluid buildup, low blood pressure, and shock. If not diagnosed and treated immediately, the damage can be fatal. It is a doctor’s duty to provide the same level of care to the patient that any other reasonable doctor would provide under similar circumstances.
