In the USA alone, around 22 million patients annually discuss the need for
surgical procedure with their surgeon. On a global scale, more than 200 million
patients are exposed to the risk of undergoing a surgical procedure every year. A
crucial part of the informed consent process for surgery is the understanding of
risk, the probability of complications, and the predicted occurrence of adverse
events. Ironically, risk quantification, risk stratification, and risk management
are not necessarily part of a surgeon's core skillset, considering the lengthy
surgical training curriculum towards technical excellence. The present review was
designed to provide a concise historic perspective on the evolution of our
current understanding of risk and probability, which represent the key underlying
pillars of the shared decision-making process between surgeons and patients when
discussing surgical treatment options.
