Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly applied to legal reasoning across various fields. Physicians in Trkiye and worldwide are beginning to consult AI tools for matters such as malpractice evaluation, labor disputes, compensation claims, and criminal liability.1,2 Although these systems offer efficiency and accessibility, their use in clinical decision-making-especially in high-risk specialties like interventional cardiology-poses significant ethical and legal challenges.3,4 In this context, we believe that this manuscript not only highlights theoretical concerns but also attempts to link AI-assisted legal reasoning with practical cardiology settings, aiming to provide more clinically grounded insights. For instance, in a complex percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), an AI system could theoretically provide real-time alerts regarding informed consent deficiencies, previous litigation patterns, or guideline deviations.5. In practice, such alerts could directly influence operator behavior during high-risk PCI by prompting immediate consent review or recommending documentation updates, thereby connecting abstract legal oversight with actual procedural workflow. If properly implemented, such tools may help mitigate risk, streamline documentation, and enhance patient safety. This conceptual analysis argues that while legal AI can serve as a valuable decision-support tool in interventional cardiology by improving medico-legal awareness, its integration into the Turkish healthcare system must be strictly circumscribed by ethical guidelines and regulatory frameworks to prevent unauthorized practice of law and protect physicians from increased liability.
