A teenager died during a routine operation when a surgeon allegedly pierced a major vein after using the wrong instrument, an inquest heard.Ryan Senior, 16, suffered multiple organ failure during what was supposed to be a ‘low-risk’ 40-minute procedure at Birmingham Children’s Hospital.
An inquest jury was told the Redditch teenager died after a surgeon allegedly used a sharp surgical instrument called a trochar instead of a blunt one, during minor keyhole surgery.
A trochar is a medical instrument with a sharply pointed end used to introduce devices such as drains and tubes inside the abdomen.
The jury heard the details of the fateful day from a report read out by Birmingham and Solihull coroner Aidan Cotter.
