My mother had a hysterectomy a month ago, but they removed her uterus without any prior tests. This led to her being diagnosed with cancer, and now her right ovary is missing. What legal action can I take against the hospital for this faulty surgery and the removal of an organ without her consent?
Best Answer
You can potentially file a medical negligence claim against the hospital for performing the hysterectomy without proper tests and removing an organ without consent. This could include claims for compensation for your mother’s pain, suffering, and medical expenses. However, the success of such a claim depends on proving the negligence and proving that the removal of the ovary was unnecessary.
