The angel in white, who is known as the guardian of life, actually made such an incredible mistake. We used to talk about such episodes with a casual joke, thinking that they were nothing more than jokes that were far from reality.
However, when black humor becomes a reality, the brutal truth behind it leaves us jaw-dropping. In the already exhausted lives of patients and their families, such careless mistakes are nothing less than adding insult to injury.
Major medical accident: mistakenly cutting a knee to rewrite the future of sports students
In a tertiary hospital in Baise City, Guangxi, a young sports student suffered irreparable losses due to medical accidents, which aroused widespread concern and discussion in the society. This 17-year-old boy was originally full of youthful vitality, but due to an operation error, he faced an unknown future.
The tragedy began at the end of March, when the teenager sought medical help for the pain of a bone tumor in his left knee, what he did not expect was that this experience of seeking medical treatment would become a nightmare in his life.
After confirming the need for surgery, what was supposed to be a relatively simple excision operation turned out to be an incredible error in the execution: the doctor who was supposed to remove the osteoma in the left knee mistakenly operated on the healthy right knee, so serious that the person was informed of the error before the operation was completed.
It was a bolt from the blue for the sports student and his family, and it was hard for them to accept that such a crude mistake had happened in a reputable tertiary hospital. Netizens were also shocked by this, and the public generally questioned that such a medical mistake was really difficult to understand and accept.
How the lump in the left knee that is clearly visible in the camera was mishandled into the right knee is not only a simple operational error, but also exposes serious problems in the hospital's management and operation processes, giving families and the public deep unease.
It is worth noting that this hospital not only enjoys a good reputation in Guangxi, but was also listed as a national pilot hospital for multidisciplinary diagnosis and treatment of oncology in 2018.
In the face of the doubts of public opinion and everyone's concern, the hospital said that this was a medical accident caused by the hospital's poor management, and expressed its willingness to communicate with patients and their families to negotiate compensation. However, blaming only management for the problem obviously does not fully comfort the teenager who faces countless uncertainties about the future because of this accident.
Official Response:
It is understood that after the occurrence of this medical accident, it has attracted the attention of the local government departments, and a special team has been set up to investigate and deal with it, and plans to invite third-party experts to evaluate the juvenile's injuries to ensure that he receives the most appropriate treatment and compensation.
On May 18, according to the Beijing News emergency call report, Guangxi Baise officials told reporters that the chief surgeon involved had been removed, "the chief surgeon has been removed from the position of department director, the autonomous regional health commission has intervened, and now a special working class has been established." Plan to bring in a third-party specialist to evaluate your child's recovery. ”

Lawyer's interpretation:
The Civil Code of the People's Republic of China clearly stipulates that if a patient suffers obvious damage during the diagnosis and treatment process, and the hospital and medical staff are negligent, the medical institution must bear the corresponding liability for compensation. This compensation covers not only medical expenses, but also other related expenses incurred by the patient, such as nutrition expenses, companionship expenses, and potential disability living allowances.
So, does this matter involve criminal liability? According to the relevant provisions of the Criminal Law on criminal liability for medical malpractice, if a medical worker causes the death or serious health damage of a patient due to serious irresponsibility, he or she is indeed required to bear the corresponding legal responsibility. However, although the irresponsible behavior of this incident is obvious, the judgment of "serious damage to the patient's physical health", including serious disability and serious injury, is still relatively strict in terms of law.
Write at the end:
In this incident, the wrong knee not only rewrote the future of this sports student, but also sounded the alarm bell for medical safety in the society. This is not only a warning to hospitals, but also a reflection on the entire medical industry, how to better avoid the occurrence of such incidents and ensure patient safety, is a problem we need to think about together.
An operational mistake, a heyday of youth, was accidentally rewritten. The eyes of the public are focused on this, constantly seeking answers, expecting a fair assessment and reasonable compensation, and more importantly, hoping that such a tragedy will not happen again.
