Gall bladder injury through abdominal surgery
The Clinical Negligence team at Blake Lapthorn solicitors has successfully pursued several cases of surgery where damage to the gall bladder or bile duct has resulted from medical negligence, and compensation for personal injury has been achieved.
We have access to independent expertise in this area. Medical experts can examine your medical records in detail to determine whether your gall bladder injury was caused by negligent surgical technique and, if appropriate, prepare reports in support of your compensation claim for negligence
Damage to the gall bladder and bile duct can occur during gall bladder operations such as removal of gallstones, or during abdominal surgery and investigations - particularly those involving the liver. The impact of gall bladder or bile duct damage on a patient can be quite significant. It can leave the patient requiring additional major surgery, or with long-term symptoms. Whilst permanent disability is rare, a few patients face ongoing infections, possible liver damage, and ultimately even the potential need for a liver transplant.
We are sufficiently experienced to appreciate the wide ranging effect of this type of personal injury on your life, and to ensure that all those factors are taken into account when quantifying your claim and, when appropriate, negotiating settlement on your behalf.
If we are able to secure an admission of liability from the defendant surgeon or hospital body, we will try to obtain an interim payment of damages on your behalf to help with immediate financial burdens whilst our investigations are completed and your claim is concluded.
