A treatment turns into a tragedy after doctors amputated the wrong leg of a patient. The tragic mistake has left a gruesome memory for the 82-year-old patient who lost his right leg.
Reports say that the elderly man has undergone surgery only to wake up and witness an irrevocable human error committed by doctors in an Austrian hospital. Instead of his left leg being removed as soon as possible, his well-functioning right leg was mistakenly amputated.
