Hip replacement claims

If your medical provider has made mistakes during the hip replacement process or sub-standard after care the implications can be long lasting, and you may be able to make a claim.

Common issues are:

• Surgical errors – so mistakes during the operation itself such as incorrectly placing the hip implant, causing damage to tissue and nerves aroung the hip, using the incorrect implements and or leaving instruments inside the patient.
• Failure to recognise or treat infections – infections are common after the surgery however if not recognised or treated correctly can lead to the need for further care, operations and periprosthetic joint infection, (PJI).
• Failure to inform the patient of all possible risks with surgery.
• Loosening or dislocation of the hip implant and failure to recognise this.
• Postoperative care – this should be provided to ensure a swift recovery and to prevent infection.
