When captured by a Mad Scientist, don't expect to be left alone in the dungeon. In fact, don't even expect to see the dungeon. Odds are you'll be hauled into the lab for immediate experimentation and end up strapped to the operating table. Heaven help you if They Would Cut You Up.
This is particularly popular with the Evilutionary Biologist and often occurs when people start Playing with Syringes. Abducting aliens also seem fond of doing this to their victims.
Even if you're dealing with an Evil Overlord who merely wants to kill you, many a Death Trap still involves strapping the victim down to a flat surface. Some even automate the process.
For some reason, the entire room is usually dark except for a spot-lit circle around the table. You'd think working scientists — even mad ones — would prefer better lighting.
More realistic settings involve victims bound to a chair (possibly a Shackle Seat Trap) instead. Speaking of reality, remember: the invention of surgery long preceded the existence of anesthetics, so... you and your surgeon needed those straps. Now hold still...

In Disgaea 4, all of the generic classes have introductory cutscenes which play when you create a new one to add to your team. The cyborg class's cutscene shows a female fighter being subjected to Alien Abduction, followed by being restrained this way and undergoing Unwilling Roboticisation.

Happens off-screen in Déjà Vu (1985): the amnesiac protagonist comes across a restraint chair which is later revealed to be where the bad guys strapped him down and gave him the drug that caused him to lose his memory prior to the start of the game.

In A Macabre Myth of a Moth-Man, poor Brett spends an entire year more or less strapped to a table while Dr. Wu turns him into a moth/human hybrid. Later on, he's strapped to the same table when Dante Eclipse tries to psychologically break him (this time though, the restraints are rigged to electrocute him if he tries to break free).

Parodied in Real Life Comics, when the James Bond parody spy is captured trying to sneak into Tony's base. He gets strapped to a table and asks Tony if he's going to put him in some overly elaborate Death Trap and then leave. Tony denies it; he says he's going to point a gun in the spy's face. If the spy moves, he pulls the trigger. If the spy doesn't move, he pulls the trigger.

A unknown woman wakes up in episode 1, strapped down to an operating table, seeing nothing but the bright lights above her head before her captor suddenly appears and clamps his hand over her mouth...
The same thing happens to an innocent artist later, who gets captured by Viceroy and then wakes up in the same operating room.
Even later, Ripley herself ends up getting kidnapped and strapped down by Viceroy.

In F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin, Becket briefly wakes up after a city-shattering explosion to find himself strapped to an operating table and enduring a horrifyingly traumatic surgery, made all the worse by the fact that every time he passes out, Beckett experienced hallucinatory dreams involving the operation, except the doctors are replaced by screaming demonic ghosts ripping into his guts. Before he passes out for the last time, the doctor in charge kindly says, "You'll feel a... little pinch... now." Cue writhing in excruciating agony when the final hallucination shows one of the monstrous doctors slamming a blade into his heart. Later on, Becket learns what that surgery was all about: Genevieve Aristide was surgically implanting Beckett to attune him to Alma in order to draw her attention after she was released.
Redd Jankowski undergoes similar treatment but doesn't survive, since the medical staff overseeing the automated surgery machines were killed.

Occurs several times in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2003): The season 1 episode "The Way of Invisibility" has this happen to Raphael after being captured by the Foot. "Notes from the Underground" parts 1 and 2, from the same season, show a video recording of a scientist turning a random guy strapped to a table into a digging monster. Later, in the season 3 episodes "Worlds Collide" parts 2 and 3, the turtles are strapped to operating tables by Bishop, who plans to dissect them. Leatherhead is also shown strapped down to a table and possibly had similar procedures done to him.

The Italian comedy Le Comiche 2 offers a few variations of this trope:
A man is strapped to a stretcher by two lunatic male nurses. Since he is complaining too much, he is knocked out with an oxygen bottle and a Minnie Mouse mask is placed on his head.
The same man (he is The Chew Toy of the movie) finds himself on an operating table where he takes the place of a female patient. Before even understanding what is going on, an anesthesia mask is placed on his face. A doctor comes in and the man learns they are going to perform a breast augmentation on him. He starts moaning but is not able to alert about the patient mix-up and passes out.
For a second time the same man finds himself on an operating table. He has been stripped to underwear revealing he has now a pair of large breasts and he is wearing a lacy bra. A surgeon with comically large scissors approaches, implying he is going to have a sex reassignment. At this point, he just passes out.

Happens to Duncan in a season 1 Highlander episode. He gets hit by a car and catches the attention of a Mad Doctor when his Healing Factor kicks in and he tries to leave the hospital. He’s drugged and taken to the doctor’s basement lab. Fortunately, he’s able to escape when the guy leaves for a while.

Assassination Classroom:
It happens to Itona in a flashback. Being a lab experiment, it kind of comes with the territory.
The human who would later be known as Koro-sensei was often strapped to a table during his months of undergoing unethical experimentation. The restraints were increased as he lost his humanity and developed tentacles.

Alex Rider:
Shortly after arriving in Point Blanc, Alex is drugged unconscious. Next morning, he mentions to James that he didn't sleep well because of a nightmare about this trope. Kyra, sat nearby, chimes in to finish his description with eerie precision, revealing that she had the exact same nightmare, with James soon admitting the same thing. This, along with Laura suddenly turning all Stepford Smiler, makes them decide to escape.
Later, after Alex's cover gets blown, he's caught and subjected to this while doped on Truth Serum.

Supernatural:
In "Time is On My Side", Sam has this done to him by a zombie doctor who wants his Puppy-Dog Eyes.
After being stripped and redressed in lederhosen, Dean had his turn in "Monster Movie".
And Ruby while being tortured by Alastair. The table is shaped like a cross.
The same table crops up again in season 6, this time with Meg as the victim.
This happens routinely to Castiel in season 8, as part of a Brainwashing scheme. He actually doesn't remember any of it until another torture victim screaming triggers a PTSD reaction. He's still brainwashed though, so Naomi is able to order him back to Heaven and keep doing it to him.
Happens to Dean again in season 10, when he's captured by a family who routinely harvest other people's organs to replace or add to their own. Dean suggests they not kill him, because if they don't, some of them might survive, but if they do, the Mark of Cain will resurrect him as a demon and he'll kill all of them. Needless to say, it's doesn't end well for the family.

The Final Fantasy VII Compilation pulls this one on the endlessly unlucky Vincent Valentine, though whatever eeriness or service-factor was intended vanishes rapidly down the commode on account of polygon chibi-sprites (FF7 itself) or towering mounds of bad drama (Dirge of Cerberus).
Interestingly zig-zagged, as while he is implied to be the victim of multiple experiments, he never seems to be strapped down - in the original Hojo simply puts him on his desk and leaves him to wake up after the event, and in Dirge he wakes unbound on an operating table in a few flashbacks or is otherwise suspended in a semi-conscious state in some sort of liquid in a tank. Whether this was an attempt to keep the certification down is anyone's guess.

In The Cobra Trilogy, protagonist Jonny Moreau is strapped to one when he's captured by the Troft (invading aliens) and expects to be vivisected (live-dissected); however, as a Cobra supersoldier, he has a bomb in his body. The Troft know about this from previous attempts at vivisection, so they just stick monitoring equipment on him and fill the place with video cameras so they can get information on his surgically implanted equipment from how he uses it during his inevitable escape attempt.

A Series of Unfortunate Events (2017): In The Hostile Hospital, Violet Baudelaire finds herself captured by Esme Squalor and Count Olaf, tied to a gurney in the Heimlich Hospital. When she attempts to call for help, they put tape over her mouth. The next time we see Violet, she's tied to a hospital bed, where the "mad doctor" Count Olaf taunts her in a very creepy way. He also reveals his plan to "operate" on Violet, performing a craniectomy which means cutting off her head. The resourceful Baudelaire does manage to escape her bonds by using a scalpel but is caught and restrained again on a gurney with thicker restraints. She is then put under anesthesia for the operation, to which the villains release her from her bonds now that she was not able to escape.

James Bond:
Goldfinger has possibly the most famous operating table scene. Bond gets strapped to an operating table with an industrial laser slowly moving toward his crotch.
In Casino Royale (1967), archvillain Jimmy Bond has the Detainer strapped naked to a cot (with wide, strategically placed metal straps). His intentions are strictly lustful.
Done similarly to Goldfinger in Die Another Day, albeit with the Girl of the Week instead of Bond himself.
Bond is strapped to a high-tech version (more like a dentist chair) while he is remotely tortured by Oberhauser in Spectre.

In The Pirate's Soldier, Ryoko is submitted to this by Washu. Unusually for this trope, despite being possibly the greatest Mad Scientist in the universe, Washu's intentions aren't malicious, since she's just doing a complete physical checkup on Ryoko, but the experience is still embarrassing for her.

Captain America: The First Avenger:
Cap finds Bucky strapped to a table after being captured by HYDRA. Judging by his exhaustion and delirious rambling, as well as his pretty drastic change of character afterwards, something happened to him that's never elaborated on. Word of God says Zola injected him with some variation of the same super-soldier serum used on Steve, explaining how he later survives his fall.
When Zola himself is captured, he's put in an interrogation room with a hospital gurney and is disturbed to see a patch of blood on the floor beneath it. It's possible that this was set up just to mess with his head so that he'd be more willing to cooperate.

Batman Beyond: The episode "April Moon" ends with one of the most disturbing uses of this trope. For context, the episode's villain, Bullwhip, has kidnapped a surgeon's beloved girlfriend and forced him to turn him and his gang into powerful cyborgs. Right before the climax, the doctor discovers that Bullwhip and his girlfriend are actually in on it together and having an affair; the thing is, Bullwhip doesn't know that the doctor knows and goes back to him for repairs after Batman defeats the rest of the gang. Bullwhip is strapped to an operating table, and he asks that the doctor upgrade him and tells him not to hold back. The doctor then begins lowering a power drill as he puts Bullwhip under...

The music video to "Nightmare" by Avenged Sevenfold begins with such a situation happening to the lead singer M.Shadowsnote given the surreal imagery throughout the video while Shadows is wheeled down the halls of the institution and since the song is called "Nightmare", this probably isn't actually happening.

The music video to "Asylum" by Disturbed has the delusional patient of the titular asylum being wheeled down a hallway in this manner then drowned as the doctors try to calm him down with cold water to the face.* Since the patient/protagonist is insane and all, this probably wasn't actually happening.

BioShock:
While you never get strapped down yourself, the first boss is the deranged plastic surgeon Dr Steinman. When you show up at his operating room (with the ominous-sounding name "Aesthetic Ideals"), he's slashing away at some poor splicer strapped to the table, ranting that she's still not "perfect". On the whole, you may want to think twice before you go to a plastic surgeon who loves Cubism.
One bed in the Little Sisters' orphanage/lab has straps...
The crucifix-like operating tables in the Big Daddy factory, headrest restraints bathed by spotlight, also Steinman's other failed works are suspended from these on his ceiling.

Mobile Suit Gundam Wing: in episode 2, Heero Yuy is strapped down after being captured. His response? He lowers his own pulse to make it seem like he's still unconscious and almost manages to break through his bonds, leaving a bloody mess. (Keep in mind, he's 15...) What's confusing is the fact that he's lying there for God-knows-how-long with an open bullet wound that's bleeding out, meaning the medics actively had to remove the bandage Relena made from a scrap of her party dress. When Relena visits later, she even demands to know why he's tied down like that; Sally Po says they're trying to keep him from hurting himself further.

Kamen Rider: The first episode of the original series had protagonist Takeshi Hongo strapped to a circular table while Shocker turned him into the Kamen Rider; as a result, this has become one of the most iconic pieces of imagery in the entire franchise. Kamen Rider OOO's Milestone Celebration of the franchise's 1000th episode (which had the cast making an In-Universe Kamen Rider movie) paid homage to this with a shot of Eiji strapped to a table...in his trademark boxer shorts.

Gundam:
Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny features a less villainous version of this: Stellar is bound to the operating table by her captors, but that's largely due to the fact that she's a chemotherapy-altered biological weapon engineered by her masters; not only is she dying from not being administered the highly-illegal chemicals that are keeping her alive, she's fighting tooth and nail to kill the doctors - technically her enemy - who are trying futilely to save her.
Mobile Suit Gundam Wing: in episode 2, Heero Yuy is strapped down after being captured. His response? He lowers his own pulse to make it seem like he's still unconscious and almost manages to break through his bonds, leaving a bloody mess. (Keep in mind, he's 15...) What's confusing is the fact that he's lying there for God-knows-how-long with an open bullet wound that's bleeding out, meaning the medics actively had to remove the bandage Relena made from a scrap of her party dress. When Relena visits later, she even demands to know why he's tied down like that; Sally Po says they're trying to keep him from hurting himself further.

On Lost, Sawyer is strapped to an operating table by Ben's henchmen in Season 3. Cue lots of Sawyer squirming and yelling while he gets an enormous fucking needle jabbed into his heart. Ben then brings out a bunny in a cage and induces the creature to have a heart attack. Except not.

Superman:
In The Death of Superman (1961), Lex Luthor straps Superman to an operating table so he can bathe him in Kryptonite radiation until killing him.
Heroic example in The Supergirl from Krypton (2004). When Supergirl arrives on Earth, she is confused, frightened, doesn't know English, and doesn't know her own strength, so she causes several disasters without meaning it. Batman knocks her out using a Kryptonite chunk, carries her to the Batcave, and straps her to an operating table to examine her and check if that unknown alien girl is Kryptonian as he suspects.
Day of the Dollmaker: A flashback panel shows one little girl gagged and chained to a table while the titular villain turns her into a living doll.
In Superman: Brainiac, Superman is strapped to an operating table after being captured by Brainiac. When he comes around, he breaks his restraints and rams his fist through a Brainiac's robot.

Sanji of One Piece gets this as treatment from the sadistic (but with a Heart of Gold) Dr. Kureha for spinal injuries when he didn't have the sense to not injure himself further by NOT fighting.
Trafalgar Law's devil fruit power functions as a variation of this. He has the ability to create "Rooms", clear domes where his powers work. As long as someone's stuck in a room, their bodies are completely at the mercy of the Surgeon of Death, which can include such things as swapping places, swapping people's bodies, removing hearts without leaving a cut, or even completely liquefying someone's internal organs with millions of tiny blades

The Medical level of Nightmare Ned plays this for laughs. One half of it opens with a Hospital Gurney Scene where Ned has to avoid evil doctors that are out to steal his organs, and the next puzzle has Ned strapped to a spinning table on a wall. The player then has to stop the table at one of eight glass jars containing substitute monster organs, and repeat depending on how many organs were taken at the start. Succeeding allows Ned to leave the room, but failing the puzzle drops Ned into a body bag, returning him to the level's hub.

Asylum of Doom: When Gaz finds herself waking up in 1945 as a patient of the Burke Lunatic Asylum, she's strapped to a bed in a patient room, something that's done to her every night for her whole experience there. She's also strapped to an actual operating table for her repeated bouts of electroshock and eventually for a lobotomy.

Heroic example in The Supergirl from Krypton (2004). When Supergirl arrives on Earth, she is confused, frightened, doesn't know English, and doesn't know her own strength, so she causes several disasters without meaning it. Batman knocks her out using a Kryptonite chunk, carries her to the Batcave, and straps her to an operating table to examine her and check if that unknown alien girl is Kryptonian as he suspects.

Strong Female Protagonist: this is the fate of Feral. The kicker? She does that in order to help people by becoming the ultimate organ donor, by virtue of her potent Healing Factor. And yes, it's completely voluntary on her part. Later, Alison is able to arrange for Feral's healing power to be supercharged, to the point that she's able to meet global demand for organ donations with just 40 hours of surgery a month.

Doctor Who:
In "The Savages", the Doctor is strapped to a gurney before he undergoes the transference process.
This happens to Polly as the first cliffhanger of "The Underwater Menace", as she is forcibly anaesthetized, about to be turned into a fish-person while kicking and screaming. This scene was so brutal that it was cut by the Australian censor board, thus making it some of the only surviving footage of the episode.
In "The Dominators", Jamie gets this at the hands of the Dominators, only instead of straps, the table paralyses him via molecular forces.
In "Genesis of the Daleks", Sarah Jane and Harry are strapped to a table and tortured via Agony Beam so that Davros can force the Doctor to reveal the information of how he defeated the Daleks in every encounter in the past (in Davros' future).
In "The Brain of Morbius", Sarah Jane is tied down to an operating table by Solon. Thankfully, he's too busy trying to reanimate Morbius to operate on her — he just wants to keep an eye on her, as she keeps running away and causing trouble, even whilst completely blind.
In "The Deadly Assassin", the Doctor experiences a hallucination of this in the Cyberspace Nightmare Sequence, in a sequence inspired by the common phobia of waking up in the middle of surgery. He also willingly submits to this in order to enter said Cyberspace world, complete with head nodes and agonized screaming.
In "The Face of Evil", Leela's first story, she gets strapped to a table in her little leather leotard, setting a trend for her later appearances.
In "The Robots of Death", one robot is seen immobilized on a table in Taren Capel's workshop with its face removed while Capel sticks a laser probe into its CPU. The robot is clearly aware of the whole process, and being Three Laws-Compliant, it loudly protests against being reprogrammed into a killer.
In "The Androids of Tara", Romana I is strapped to a table and nearly cut up for parts due to being mistaken for an android.
"Resurrection of the Daleks" has the Daleks do this to the Doctor.
During the Sixth Doctor's run, this happens twice to Peri — one of the reasons why this era was widely perceived as nasty and mean-spirited.
In "Dalek", the Doctor gets strapped to a wall-based body scanner and unwillingly examined via Agony Beam.
This happens to Rose and Mickey in "The Girl in the Fireplace". There was an unintentional pan over Billie Piper's tightly clad body; when the production team saw it in the edit, they kept it.
Subverted in "The Hungry Earth"/"Cold Blood": the Silurian doctor doing the examination turns out to be perfectly well-meaning, if a bit lacking in anesthetic techniques.

Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny features a less villainous version of this: Stellar is bound to the operating table by her captors, but that's largely due to the fact that she's a chemotherapy-altered biological weapon engineered by her masters; not only is she dying from not being administered the highly-illegal chemicals that are keeping her alive, she's fighting tooth and nail to kill the doctors - technically her enemy - who are trying futilely to save her.

The climax of The Hunger 1997 episode "Sanctuary" has Mad Artist Julian Priest (David Bowie) strapping Eddie, a murderer on the run, to an operating table to turn him into a grisly piece of performance art. Worse, Eddie is conscious, but only from the neck up thanks to Julian's subsidiary skills with anesthetics. Even worse, Eddie does not exist, and the legless corpse the police discover is Julian's. What we saw was his Dying Dream: having committed the murder, he proceeded to kill himself by numbing his body, strapping himself to the table, and severing his own legs — knowing he would gain artistic immortality this way.

In Casino Royale (1967), archvillain Jimmy Bond has the Detainer strapped naked to a cot (with wide, strategically placed metal straps). His intentions are strictly lustful.

Within the same room, there are several jars of random, harvested organs floating in translucent liquid...

In one episode of Big Wolf on Campus, Tommy finds himself in another dimension where he never became a werewolf, but his much less responsible football teammate did. While trying to fight with said teammate, Tommy is bitten and passes out. Merton and Lori (who, in this dimension, aren't normally friends with Tommy) have him strapped to a table in Merton's lab until they can determine if he's safe or not. He promptly rips the (metal!) straps apart just by sitting up.

Early in Quake IV, the hero gets in a little over his head in a battle and is subsequently knocked out and captured by the enemy aliens. When he wakes, he's strapped to the operating table/Conveyor Belt o' Doom for a rather nasty surgical procedure to turn him into one of them...and after watching most of the "Stroggification" procedure happen to yourself, the cavalry shows up.

In BlazBlue, Relius Clover's Astral Finish had his opponent in this condition. In a way, this varies between characters, such as Arakune's 'Operating Table' being a big flask, Ragna and Rachel being bound to crosses, Jin being tied with ray lights, Taokaka being inside a cage, Bang being bound and forced to kneel thanks to the heavy weights on his legs, etc. (The only one actually strapped to something like a table is Mai Natsume.) Regardless, knowing what kind of person Relius is, rather than showing what happens to the character, the door closes in and a scream is heard.

Transformers:
Whenever Tarantulas of Beast Wars is able to get his hands on a "subject", he gleefully straps them to a table and torments them with a variety of painful experiments while casually dismissing remarks about his sanity.
Lockdown in Transformers: Animated, though his tables are used so he can steal his victim's mods as trophies (unless you read fanfiction).
In Transformers: Prime, Breakdown is strapped down by MECH, a human terrorist cell, who start to take him apart to find out how he works, just like with any machine. While he's still fully conscious. This also crops up in Season 2 during a flashback episode in which Shockwave straps down Arcee and Cliffjumper to retrieve an Autobot code using a cortical psychic patch.

Frieza, in Chapter 4 of Savior of Demons, during his extensive recovery is either strapped to a table or strapped to an upright vertical frame. Naturally, this means he can't get away when Goku torments him with his Super Saiyan transformation. Even before Goku showed up, he was being restrained, probably for reacting very violently to whatever the doctors did to reconstruct his body.
