As well as total hip and knee joint replacements claims, less common smaller prostheses are now possible, including replacement elbow and ankle joints. Whatever kind of joint replacement you have had, Blake Lapthorn solicitors can advise you if medical negligence and consequent injury has occurred.
Our Clinical Negligence team acknowledge that some complications in medical treatment do occur, but it can be particularly devastating when joint replacement surgery fails because it is complicated by:
prosthetic failure
infection of the prosthesis
injury to adjacent structures
Cosmetic surgery claims.
