Hong Kong surgeon misidentified organs in fatal blunder, hospital probe finds

A Hong Kong surgeon misidentified organs during an operation on an 85-year-old woman with obstructive sigmoid colon cancer, leading to her death three weeks later. An investigation found the surgeon exhibited 'confirmation bias' in identifying abdominal structures. Tseung Kwan O Hospital released a cause analysis report on the incident, prompting a former lawmaker to call for the surgeon's dismissal.
