Kansas City Medical Malpractice Attorney

Gynecological examinations are very intimate and even intrusive but they are a necessary part of life for good health and essential for early detection of serious health concerns such as cancer and pre-cancerous abscesses. Gynecologists and obstetricians recommend that women have an annual pelvic examination and Pap test after the age of twenty-one. These exams are essential for the health of the reproductive organs and vital for women thinking of having children. Having a gynecological exam is nerve-racking enough for most women without the thought of suffering a gynecological injury in the process.

Gynecological injuries can result from surgical procedures, childbirth, hysterectomy, medication error, misdiagnosis, and a host of other procedures designed to protect a woman's health. If it is serious enough, an injury of this type can cause infertility, future complications during labor, miscarriage, endometriosis, and/or lesions or other health complications in the vagina, uterus, vulva, ovaries, cervix, pelvis, and/or fallopian tubes. These types of injuries fall under medical malpractice and entitle the victim to compensation for her discomfort, anguish, and distress.

Some gynecological injuries include:

• Mistake in screening and/or testing
• Misdiagnosis or incorrect analysis results
• Failure to diagnose a serious disease such as cancer
• Adverse reaction to birth control
• Mishandled abortion
• Failure to diagnose pregnancy
• Error in labor and/or delivery
• Mistake in hysterectomy or other gynecological surgery
• dhesions, abnormal healing, or scaring

Poorly administer OB/GYN examinations and/or diagnosis and careless endourological procedures are the leading cause of ureteral injuries. Negligent gynecological surgery is another big contributor accounting for between fifty to seventy-five percent of iatrogenic ureteral injuries. Abdominal hysterectomies account for over half of all gynecological injuries. The most serious complication that can result from gynecological surgery is injury to the ureters. Even though this type of injury is rare, it is more serious than other more common complications related to this type of surgery.
