Tragic Mix-Up: BHU Doctors Operate on Wrong Body Part, Patient Dies

In a devastating case of medical negligence, a 71-year-old woman, Radhika Devi, died after undergoing a partial surgery for a spinal tumor that was mistakenly performed on her hip instead. The incident occurred at the Banaras Hindu University (BHU) trauma center, where Radhika Devi had been admitted for treatment.

According to reports, Radhika Devi was scheduled to undergo surgery for a spinal tumor. However, due to a patient misidentification, the doctors at the BHU trauma center operated on her hip, performing a hip replacement procedure instead of the planned spinal surgery. This tragic mix-up led to further complications and multiple additional surgeries, ultimately resulting in Radhika Devi's untimely death.

The case has sparked outrage and an investigation into the gross medical negligence that led to this devastating outcome. Authorities have vowed to hold the responsible parties accountable and implement measures to prevent such incidents from occurring in the future. The loss of Radhika Devi's life has left her family devastated, and they are seeking justice for the tragic mistake that cost her her life.
