There is no clear cut answer to your question. Most surgeries have risks and doctors are trained to explain them to you. No surgery guarantees sucess and there are always risks associated with surgeries. Unless it was an emergency procedure, I'm sure that you had a pre-surgery physical exam which cleared you for the surgery. it doesn't sound like you have a claim.
