Surgeon Left 16 Items In Body
Of Cancer Patient Causing His
Death
A few German surgeons have been
accused of the ultimate malpractice—
leaving up to 16 objects in a prostate
cancer patient’s body after operating.
Annette Corinth says doctors removed a
needle, compresses and surgical strips
from her client, banker Helmut Brecht,
after his wounds failed to heal properly
following surgery in 2009, AP reports.
Unfortunately, the 77-year-old ex-banker
died last year, and now his family wants
€80,000 ($106,216) in damages for
costs & his suffering from Hannover’s
Henriettenstift hospital.
However, Achim Balkhoff, spokesman for
the organization that runs the hospital,
rejected the claims, stating the
equipment in question wasn’t in use at
the hospital.

Very difficult to believe!!

Surgeons/nurses count instruments before and after surgery just to make sure that everything is removed.
