Traditionally, in the United Kingdom and Europe the surgeon was generally not troubled by litigation from patients presenting as elective as well as emergency cases, but this aspect of custom has changed. Litigation by patients now significantly affects surgical practice and vicarious liability often affects hospitals. We discuss some fundamental legal definitions, a must to know for a surgeon, and highlight some interesting cases.
传统上，在英国和欧洲，无论是择期手术患者还是急诊手术患者，外科医生一般都不会受到患者诉讼的困扰，但这种惯例已经发生了变化。如今，患者的诉讼严重影响外科手术实践，间接责任往往也会影响到医院。我们将讨论一些基本的法律定义，这是外科医生必须了解的内容，并重点介绍一些有趣的案例。
