In saner climes, that doctor risk losing his licence for negligence of duty. He ought to carry out appropriate medical test and not rely on the patient's account. A doctor should diagnose ailment before proceeding with any treatment and not rely on patients account of symptoms. He really have a lot to answer.

DrAify and KingT om, what are your take on this.
In Saner climes he should never have graduated from Uni angry How can one rely on the account of a patient Shame on him. Sadly this is Nigeria, the maluu will be allowed to continue. It will be business as usual grin grin grin

I am neither a Gynaecologist nor a Surgeon and I do realise nobody is infallible. However, every reasonably competent doctor will know severe anaemia or blood loss with lower abdominal or pelvic pain, especially in a young woman, should scream pregnancy - even if the patient denies a history of pregnancy. Appendicitis hardly ever causes severe blood loss. A quick pregnancy test probably would have save her life.
Sad story. May her soul rest in peace.

The doctor should take part of the blame too.In my practise,I have learnt not to take teenagers for their words when it comes to pregnancy.Just forget about what the patient tells you especially when she presents with clinical features suggestive of pregnancy.Get a PT done,if it comes out negative,you can rule pregnancy out and focus on other differentials.If you are still not convinced after the negative PT,get an ultrasound scan done.Trust me you will save lives this way.

What happened to ultrasound scan, abdominal tap etc. I swear a pale woman with distended abdomen and pain is a ruptured ectopic till proven otherwise.

If the story legit...

That reminds me of a book I read in secondary school: The Pregnant Virgin...which has been taking place even before 1AD. So the girl may actually be a virgin.

Her soul will rest in peace.

Well said. As a clinician, an high index of suspicion should be a must have.

Have you ever been a doctor? Or u just want to talk? Do you know that various ailments could have the same symptoms? So should a doctor start to test for all those ailments before treating the patient? Why then do doctors ask the patients questions, when they would just go forward and run test to check for all the available ailments having the same symptoms?

In saner climes, someone who's not a doctor wouldn't condemn a doctor when he knows nothing.

I don't agree sir.
A patient tells u she is a virgin, and u the 'almighty doctor' will still insist that it is pregnancy? I wonder what history of aetiology is meant for if not to rule out probable causes...

I concur....
The doctor in question actually made a diagnosis of appendicitis which was a wrong diagnosis.
A patient with abdominal distension,pain,vomiting and bleeding is an emergency case.
In medicine,there is something called "acute abdomen". Acute abdomen requires an urgent attention because any further delay is gonna be dangerous.
The doc should have stabilized her before doing exploratory laparatomy.
This is medical negligence and he has to face the law.
So sad cry

N.B. Patients,never fabricate or lie about information that is crucial to the doctor.
