    Introduction: Surgical informed consent is an important aspect of any surgical operation, and it should be founded on clear communication between patients and health-care providers, which is based on human rights, autonomy, and the right to information. Patient satisfaction with the informed consent procedure is a key indication of patient satisfaction with health-care services and a reflection of high-quality care. For all surgical operations, a properly informed consent process is at the core of collaborative decision-making, legal requirements, and ethical commitments. Despite this, it is rarely applied consistently and rarely approaches the theoretical ideal.
