Is this a medical accident?

Hello, if what you said is true, it should be caused by the mistake of the hospital and should be recognized as a medical accident.

Here is an example:

When a patient in Chuxiong underwent cholecystectomy in a hospital in Chuxiong, the doctor left the titanium clip used in the operation in the patient's body and mistakenly clamped it on the common bile duct, which led to the patient having to undergo a second operation. A few days ago, the Chuxiong People's Court made a judgment on this case, and the hospital assumed full liability for compensation.

On June 4, 2008, Bu Moumou went to a hospital in Chuxiong for pain in his right upper abdomen. The hospital diagnosed "gallstones" and admitted them to relevant departments for hospitalization. On June 10, the hospital performed laparoscopic cholecystectomy for him. After the operation, Bumoumou developed symptoms of biliary obstruction. Later, the hospital once again performed a laparotomy on Bu Moumou. During the operation, it was found that the titanium clip caught the common bile duct by mistake during the first operation. The hospital immediately took remedial measures on the same day, took out the titanium clip, cut the front wall of the common bile duct and placed drainage. In the same year, Bumoumou's condition improved and he was discharged.

After identification, Bu Moumou's injury was eight-level disability, and the compensation for surgical accidents was unsuccessful due to consultation with the hospital. In May this year 1 1, Bu Moumou filed a lawsuit in Chuxiong City Court, demanding that the hospital compensate for various economic losses such as hospitalization expenses and nursing expenses, totaling more than 654.38 million yuan. The hospital argued that the accidental clamping of the common bile duct was due to the abnormal structure of the patient's own biliary system, the abnormal cystic duct, and the walking direction parallel to the common bile duct, which increased the risk of complications of biliary tract injury.

The Chuxiong City Court held that the damage result of Bu Moumou was caused by the hospital's surgical error, and the hospital should bear all civil liability for compensation, and sentenced the hospital to compensate Bu Moumou for economic losses of 90,670 yuan.
