Clinical Negligence Claims in relation to Orthopaedic Injuries are common. The most common problems that may lead to a successful claim would include failure to diagnose, manage and treat a fracture. Orthopaedic Injuries can occur during Orthopaedic Surgery and Treatment, which is the branch of surgery concerned with conditions involving the musculoskeletal system. This treatment is usually performed by Orthopaedic Surgeons, who are trained to deal with problems that develop in the bones, joints, and ligaments of the human body.
There are a wide range of operations, procedures and treatments that are carried out where there is a possibility of sustaining an Orthopaedic Injury.
The most common claims involve:
• Knee Surgery
• Knee Replacement
• Hip Replacement
• Hip Resurfacing
• Shoulder Surgery
• Hand Surgery
• Ankle Surgery
• Arm Surgery
• Leg Surgery
• Feet Surgery
If you believe that you have suffered an injury or experienced problems after undergoing Orthopaedic Surgery and you think it may be due to medical negligence, please contact us.
