Gynecological issues can vary from wanting to prevent pregnancy to painful health conditions that impact your quality of life. When you need to seek gynecological surgery, you are hoping to relieve the problem and put it behind you so you can live your life. When errors occur during your procedure, you may be burdened with serious health problems. Race Law Firm is here to help if you believe you are a victim of a medical error, causing injury during gynecological surgery.

The female reproductive system is complicated and can impact many other bodily functions. It is not just pregnancy and sexual function that can be affected when something goes wrong during gynecological surgery. The rectum, bladder and other organs are in close proximity and can be damaged with even a small error. Surgical mistakes cause serious complications far from the reproductive area, leading to brain damage or even death.

Surgical Errors Made During Gynecological Surgery

There are many different gynecological conditions that require surgery. These can include excessive menstrual bleeding, ovarian cyst removal, hysterectomies, cervical cancer tubal ligations and uterus ablation. Many are performed endoscopically, but some may require open surgery. When mistakes are made during these surgical procedures, the consequences may result in serious health problems or even death. These include:

• Improper anesthesia dosage or monitoring
• Damage to nearby organs
• Sterilization
• Internal bleeding
• Serious infection or sepsis
