Media reports according to the Vanguard Newspaper have said that a British surgeon has been suspended over allegations that he had branded his initials on the liver of a patient during a surgery.

The accused, Simon Bramhall was suspected of the allegations when a fellow colleague discovered his initials, S.B, on the organ during a follow up visit at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Birmingham.

According to the British news daily, the Daily Mail, the surgeon was alleged to have seared his initials into the liver of the patient with non-toxic argon gas.

Investigations are still being made to get to the heart – or shall we say, the liver – of the matter.
