I seriously doubt that you can file a lawsuit. I know that when I signed my consent form for surgery the form stated that the procedure being performed could be changed at the doctors discretion if during the procedure the doctor found that he could not perform the original procedure due to your anatomy of unknown medical conditions. Go back and read your consent forms............I wish you the best of luck and health.

Have your current doctor or PCP ask for an entire copy of your surgery file including the surgery report be sent immediately. Make sure your actual surgical report is in there. And get a copy of the dictated report from the hospital now!!!  Funny how things can change in a file once the L word is used.  My family found out the hard way when my father died wrongfully in 1998. Files change and things go missing. Thankfully we had copies!
