A New York mother has revealed that a surgical needle was accidentally left inside her abdomen during a C-section procedure seven years ago, a mistake she only discovered recently. The woman, who endured persistent pain and medical complications for years without knowing the cause, is now pursuing legal action against the surgeons and hospital involved. Medical experts warn that retained foreign objects in surgery are a rare but serious risk, often going undetected for long periods. The case raises concerns about surgical safety protocols and the importance of thorough post-operative checks.
