Why do complications occur in surgery?

There is a saying…”You cannot make an omelette without breaking an egg”

But in surgery we try to do just that!  Surprisingly in most cases , surgery goes well with most having a successful outcome and no major complications. More importantly, surgeons have become a victim of their own success with Community expectations that we can always make an omelette without breaking an egg.  Unfortunately, despite our best efforts, things do happen. Sometimes very bad things. But by and large, the egg stays intact.
