dc.description.abstractIatrogenic burns are unpleasant and sometimes difficult to explain to patients. Podiatric surgeons routinely use electrosurgical devices to cut and coagulate tissue during surgical procedures. Although advances in technology have made electrosurgery increasingly safer for patients and personnel, its use is still poorly understood by the surgical community, and the hazards associated with its use still exist presently. Human error, direct or indirect transfer of electricity to a conductive device, or device malfunction can cause serious adverse events, including burns, electrical shocks, and or fires. Here, we report a rare case of a 43-year-old man who suffered severe burns during hallux valgus surgery. The surgeon and the nursing staff did not notice any injuries during the surgical intervention. This unusual clinical case serves to highlight the importance of implementing protocols to prevent injuries related to the use of electrosurgery. Based on this report, a specific checklist was implemented to prevent adverse events related to electrosurgery in our podiatric surgery unit to reduce the risk of electrosurgical complications. The implementation of the checklist can be useful to help health professionals improve patient safety during surgery and avoid potential medico–legal liability claims.es
