A cancer patient was forced to undergo a corrective operation after surgeons mistakenly removed the wrong part of his bowel.
Surgeons at Northern Beaches Hospital in Sydney performed colorectal surgery on the male patient last week.
The patient underwent a corrective surgery on Friday, but his health condition is not immediately known.
