Gynaecological errors
Despite significant advances in medicine and in surgical techniques,
gynaecological errors remain the main source of medical negligence
claims in the UK.
Although medical professionals are entrusted with providing an
appropriate standard of care to all women, mistakes can, and do,
arise.
Gynaecological errors can result in infections, infertility,
miscarriage, birth injuries and, in certain circumstances, death.
As well as physical harm, gynaecological errors frequently result
in severe emotional and psychological consequences for the patient
and their families.
Medical negligence claims arising from gynaecological services
may result in:-
- Incomplete termination of pregnancy
- Unplanned pregnancy
- Abortion
- Perforation of the uterus by intrauterine devices such as
the coil
- Perforation of the uterus or other internal organ during
surgery
