[Forensic medical implications of vascular injuries and accidents related to the practice of conventional general surgery].
We recall a certain number of cases in our experience after cure of a hernia. Cases include damage to the iliac arteries and veins after appendicectomy (the case is still in court 25 years after the accident), hemorrhage after hysterectomy, damage to the iliac artery due to a Pfannensteel incision, lesion of the axillary artery during lymph node curettage, and hemorrhage during attempted appendicectomy.
