Case Responses
52yo female right thyroid lobectomy and isthmusectomy, has significant burn injury to neck. (Case #399)
- Medical Probability: 7 / 10
- Medical Error Summary: probably a full thicknes burn of skin either to pressure injury or thermal injury.
- Causation Probability: 6 / 10
- Causation Summary: probably a technical error during the case.
- Expert Summary: I am a practicing head and neck surgeon and thyroid surgeon.
- Similar Summary: It is extremely rare for me or my partners to happen. I have seen minor burns during thyroidectomy, but a full-thickness burn is very unlikely. I have not seen this in my practice before.
