Surgeon changing agreed procedure

Edit Post

For example you agreed prior to the surgery to have Antegrade femur insertion but you wake up and find your surgeon inserted the femur nail retrograde through the knee because they said it was more suitable. Can a surgeon be sued for this?

I think this is what is covered in an informed consent form?
