 A woman in Sikkim endured 12 years of health complications after medical equipment was accidentally left in her abdomen during surgery at STNM Hospital in 2012. The incident occurred during an appendectomy, where doctors unknowingly left a pair of forceps inside her body.


Despite repeated complaints over the years, her symptoms were initially dismissed as gastric issues by doctors. It wasn’t until October 2024 that an X-ray revealed the presence of the foreign object in her abdomen.

Hospital authorities have announced a high-level meeting to address the situation. Further details on the outcome of the investigation are expected to follow.
