Filing a lawsuit most frequently happened after demise of patients (36.1%) with general surgery with 61.57% of all cases.Conclusion: patients with COMPLAINTs were mostly under 50 years old and 91.2% were females, showing that females and young age patients have more desire to bring the case to the court.
