Is unnecessary surgery a fact? If surgeons know beforehand that an operation is unnecessary, there can be only one reason to go ahead and perform it anyway: money. Although the surgical profession is not riddled with avaricious opportunists who are beyond control, there are some in the medical profession who reject the idea that any unnecessary surgery exists.
“Unnecessary surgery” is surgery performed without any expectation of improving either the quality of a patient’s life or the length of that life. Even with the best intentions, it may turn out that a given operation fails to produce the expected results. While, in one sense, this operation has proved to be “unnecessary,” it is only unnecessary in hindsight.
Since surgery is not an exact science, such judgments will occasionally turn out to have been in error. As it is usually used, however, the phrase “unnecessary surgery” implies that surgeons know that certain operative procedures are not necessary but perform them anyway, thus subjecting patients to unnecessary risk and expense. There are dishonest and unethical people in all businesses and professions. Hysterectomy or removal of the uterus is a common example of unnecessary surgery. The necessity for hysterectomy has declined with the use of alternative therapies.
Although not everyone will need to have their tonsils out, uterus removed, or blood vessels repaired, some people will need these operations for certain specific reasons. This is where surgical judgment comes in. Surgeons are well aware that the indications for certain operations change with new information, and those who remain current with the new information in their specialty are more aware of this than others. You can easily appreciate how important it is for your surgeon to remain up to date. It is estimated that the surgical information base completely turns over every six years. As a result, if your proposed surgeon does not participate in continuing medical education programs — by attending professional meetings or reading surgical journals or making rounds at a teaching hospital — you may be placing yourself in the hands of someone whose knowledge and skills have become obsolete.
