Beed C-Section Horror: Gloves, Paper Allegedly Left Inside 19-Year-Old Woman

Authorities in Beed district, Maharashtra have initiated an investigation following allegations that surgical gloves and paper were left inside a 19-year-old woman's abdomen after a Caesarean section at a government hospital. The incident occurred on August 1 when Sandhya Suraj Gaikwad of Wadwani village was admitted to the Beed District Hospital for delivery.

She underwent a C-section that same evening but began experiencing severe abdominal pain and post-operative complications afterwards. Upon seeking further treatment at a private facility, medical scans revealed foreign objects lodged inside her abdomen. Gaikwad's relatives reported the matter to the district hospital administration, which subsequently led to the formation of a special inquiry committee.

A senior health official stated that the probe panel visited the Beed District Hospital on Wednesday and began their investigation. The show-cause notice issued targets the medical officer who performed the procedure, with the entire operating theatre team under scrutiny for the alleged negligence.
