Surgical Negligence Claims
Medical Negligence Claims: Surgical Negligence
Surgical Negligence Claims are a particularly common type of Medical Negligence Claim. This is probably due to vast numbers of surgical procedures taking place everyday and the inherent risks involved.
All surgical procedures will carry some level of risk. An obvious risk is a reaction to the anaesthetic. However, all risks should be explained to a patient before consenting to a surgical procedure.
Most Surgical Negligence Claims involve poor surgical technique. However, our Lawyers have dealt with Surgical Negligence Claims that have involved:
Retention of medical instruments (e.g. swabs);
Awareness during surgery;
Poor results following cosmetic surgery or damage during cosmetic surgery to nerves e.t.c.;
Damage to internal organs (especially the bladder);
Areas of expertise
Surgical Negligence Claims will involve a consideration of the records relating to the procedure that took place. Often, medical evidence will be needed from an expert surgeon.
Our Lawyers will guide you through your Surgical Negligence Claim using the experience that they have accumulated over the many years that they have dealt with these types of claim.
