An Australian neurosurgeon star admitted that he "had left the bad piece" from the brain of a woman during surgery but affirms that enemies in the medical world wanted to destroy it, ABC.net.au reported this week . Charlie Teo, 65, admitted the fifth day of a disciplinary hearing. The country's health care complaints (DHCC) is examining its conduct with two patients. Three neurosurgeons said last week that the operation on women was "excessive," the media reported. Teo explained to the commission how he had managed to remove the bad part of the woman's brain and alleged that some other members of the profession wanted to see his fall. Read the rest to find out more, including what happened to him and what action is waiting for Teo if the panel finds that he has committed a fault.

"Ignorance", no negligence, he says

Teo operated on the woman to eliminate a brain tumor. During the hearing, he was asked why he had decided to remove a piece from the patient's frontal lobe during the procedure. "I took too much. I took out the bad piece of the front lobe," said Teo, according to the media. "In fact, I did not know at the time. I learned from this case. It was not negligence. Perhaps ignorance on my behalf, but certainly not negligence." "I did the bad thing. Was it my intention? Absolutely not. I didn't try to hurt her." The woman was left in a coma and died about a month later.

Compliant "Hood-Linked" and "Corced", says doctor

When asked what he would have done differently, Teo said, "Draw my punches. Try to leave a little more tumor behind. Perhaps a different approach," Guardian reported. "This is the question of $ 6 million." What did you do badly? What can you get? "", He added. Currently, Teo is not allowed to operate in Australia without written consent. The DHCC was looking for if this restriction should be abandoned or prolonged. During the hearing, one of the lawyers asked Teo about the comments of the public he had made that one of the complainants had been "in the process of doing the cap" and "forced" to file a complaint against him.

"Enemies" influenced a complainant, says the doctor

Teo said that the man's initial complaint concerned the difficulty of transporting his comatuser from Sydney to Australia-Western, where she lived, not on her professional performance, reported the press-academy. "[The complainant] was subject to my intentions were not honorable ... and that he should file a complaint about me," said Teo at the hearing. "So I hold these comments to the media. I think it was suggested by several doctors during this period." "We had a good relationship and that seems to have been embittered. I hypothesized that it had been" arrived "by my enemies," he added.

Another woman left in a coma after surgery

Last week, this man said that his wife, like the other woman, had been left in a "vegetative state" for about six months after Teo operated a stadium tumor in his cerebral trunk. She died in March 2019. The man said that he and his wife had proceeded to the operation because Teo told them that there was a "5%risk" of death. Teo said he probably told them that there was a "100%" risk of "a certain degree of paralysis" of the operation, the media reported.

Former patients presented themselves in support

The former patients and supporters of Teo presented themselves at the hearing. Some held panels. Many said that Teo had saved their lives. The hearing is underway. After a recent session, Teo seemed emotional, wiping a tear by addressing the assembled media. "What can I say? It's uh, it's overwhelming. It's crazy," he said. "Anyway, I'm here for them. This is why I'm here. It's not for me." AE0FCC31AE342FD3A1346EBB1F342FCB
