Gynaecalogical Injuries & Medical Negligence
Gynaecology is concerned with the diagnosis and treatment of disorders in the female reproductive system and is related to obstetrics due to the effects clinical negligence errors during pregnancy can have on women. The most common types of gynaecological claims include:
- Failed sterilisation
- Failure to diagnose and treat cancer or an infection
- Delay in diagnosis or treatment of cancer or an infection
- Substandard surgery, such as pregnancy termination and hysterectomy
If you believe you have suffered medical negligence during childbirth or surgery, you may be able to make a claim for the impact it has had on you and your child. This ranges from loss of earnings and medical care costs to adaptation of the home and compensation for pain and suffering caused.
