    A BRAIN surgeon in Austria is under fire for allegedly allowing her 13-year-old daughter to drill a hole in a patient’s skull.

    A 33-year-old man was flown to University Hospital Graz, in Styria, in January with serious head injuries following an accident in an Austrian forest.

    The unnamed female neurosurgeon is alleged to have allowed her teenage daughter to participate in the emergency surgery, according to Austria’s Kronen Zeitung.

    The newspaper reported that she was even allowed to drill a hole in the patient's skull.

    The surgery was successful, but in April, an anonymous tip-off to Graz public prosecutor’s office prompted an investigation.

    The patient found out about the incident from the news, only to have the police tell him in July that he was the victim.

    Peter Freiberger, his lawyer, said “You lie there, unwilling, unconscious and become [a] guinea pig.

    "There’s probably no other way to put it... that’s not possible. You can’t do that.”

    He added that everyone involved in the surgery shared responsibility and that the hospital hadn't reached out to the alleged victim after the revelations, according to Bild

    "There was no contact, no explanation or apology, nothing. That is simply undignified," Peter was quoted as saying.

    The surgeon and one other employee, a specialist who was present during the operation, are said to have been let go by the hospital.

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

        Im guessing that’s against the rules.

          Reminds me of this:

          Aeroflot Flight 593 crashed into a mountain range killing everyone on board, but recovery of flight recorder data showed Yaroslav Kudrinsky had let a child take control of the plane
