The da Vinci surgical system is a complex robot advertised as a safe and better alternative to an actual surgeon. Surgery is done by a computer and procedures are minimally invasive. The manufacturer sends out doctors nationwide to train their peers on the use of the equipment. Many times, these trainers stay on as observers without patients knowing they are “de facto e-surgery guinea pigs.”At Gillette & Izzo Law Office, we are experienced in the growing number of injury claims arising from the following:
- Design defects of the da Vinci surgical systems
- The lack of sufficient instruction and training
- Failures to communicate potential risks
Robotic Surgery Errors Can Lead To Complex Medical Malpractice Claims
Use of the da Vinci robot can result in complications that do not involve the experience or inexperience of the physician. In fact, the surgeon may not be aware of defects that result in:
- Burns
- Tears
- Internal bleeding
- Sepsis or infection
- Additional or emergency surgery
- Wrongful death
