The Gynaecologist deals exclusively with female issues, including diagnosis and treatment of the female reproductive system. Such treatments if performed negligently can have devastating consequences.
Medical negligence claims can arise in many areas and more commonly arise as a result of:
• failure of contraception, female sterilisation or vasectomy
• failed abortion and subsequent wrongful birth
• Bladder, bowel or urethra injury during gynaecology operations
• perforation of the uterus due to negligent insertion of inter-uterine contraceptive devices and during abortion procedures
• Failure to perform hysterectomy correctly leading to injury to bladder, bowels or ureters
• loss of fertility due to infection following gynaecology operation
• laparoscopy negligence including perforation, haemorrhage and damage to the abdominal wall, the ureters and the bladder
• delayed diagnosis of genital cancer and delayed diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy
• Incontinence following surgery
• Infection which may result in infertility
• treatment of endometriosis
• the management of abnormal smears and the consequences this may lead to
If you have been affected by any gynaecological issues, and you think it is due to medical negligence, you could be eligible to bring a compensation claim.
