Orthopaedic care

Specialists in orthopaedic compensation claims

According to the NHS database, in 2004-5 there were 82,919 hip replacement operations performed in the UK. As society ages, that figure is set to rise.

Of course, it is not just hip joints that need orthopaedic care. There are knee joints, shoulder joints, breaks and fractures, and as with any surgery things can go wrong. These can include:

  • infection of the bone (osteomyelitis);
  • incorrect placing of pins or plates;
  • incorrectly placed ligament grafts;
  • failure to notice damaged tendons.

If a second operation is needed, this increases the period that you are incapacitated and in pain, and can make a successful result less likely.

At Hodge Jones and Allen our specialist medical accident lawyers see and handle many orthopaedic compensation claims. If you have suffered as a result of hospital negligence, you may be able to make a clinical negligence compensation claim if we can show that you have suffered pain or disability through failed or sub-standard treatment.
