Ruling on Medical Negligence in Surgical Case
February 18, 2026
The Supreme Court rejected a doctor's appeal who was found responsible for medical negligence during a procedure in 2007. The first surgery, deemed unnecessary, resulted in paralysis of the patient's lower limbs. The doctor failed to adequately inform the patient about the risks and chances of success. A second surgery was necessary to prevent permanent damage. The court confirmed that the initial ruling was correct and based on reliable testimony.
