| Core Tip |
Prior reports indicate that surgeons will face at least one malpractice lawsuit during their career. Malpractice suits and the threat thereof may pose a significant psychological burden on young otolaryngologists. Preparation for such a situation should be embedded into residency curricula, yet no prior study has reported on this topic otolaryngology trainee litigation on a state/federal level. The reported cases highlight the importance of thorough informed consent, proper diagnosis/management, and clear communication between attending physicians and trainees. Incorporating these seminal cases into the existing literature would support preemptive educational efforts and provide evidence-based insight for trainees in a legal predicament. |
