Imagine undergoing a procedure expecting relief, only to discover that the surgeon operated on the wrong limb, organ, or side of the body. Such errors can lead to additional surgeries, prolonged recovery times, permanent disability, or even life-threatening complications. Beyond the physical toll, victims can experience anxiety, loss of trust in healthcare providers, and financial burdens from medical bills and lost income.<\/p>\n<p>These incidents are generally classified as \u201cnever events\u201d in the medical field, meaning they should never occur under proper care standards. Despite this, wrong-site surgery happens due to factors like miscommunication, inadequate preoperative checks, or rushed procedures.
