Do we have a personal injury case if there was a misdiagnosis?

My 16 year old went into surgery to have a cyst removed from her left ovaries, but when the doctor went in to remove the cyst it wasn’t on her left ovaries it was on the right ovaries. The right ovaries had actually had two cysts, one of which had burst. The doctor told me that she had to remove almost the entire ovary. All the papers that was signed was consent to remove a cyst from the left side. Is this at least misdiagnosis?
