Ectopic Pregnancy Misdiagnosis Claims

An ectopic pregnancy is when the baby develops outside the uterus, usually in a fallopian tube. If not diagnosed and treated quickly, this type of pregnancy can have serious consequences and even have an impact on a woman’s chances of getting pregnant in the future. Therefore, if you have been misdiagnosed, you could have a claim for compensation.

Have You Suffered from Ectopic-Related Medical Negligence?

Medical negligence could have occurred if:

• A medical professional misdiagnosed the ectopic pregnancy
• There was a failure to undertake any tests for ectopic pregnancy
• There was a failure or delay in treatment, including the prescribing of ‘methotrexate’, which prevents the egg developing in the fallopian tube
• After a routine scan was performed which did not show the baby in the womb, no additional tests were carried out
• There was surgical error when removing a fallopian tube
• There was a failure to remove the pregnancy or it is incomplete
• There was a failure to monitor recovery post treatment

If you have been victim of medical negligence during or after an ectopic pregnancy, you could claim for the following:

• Injury or loss suffered
• Loss of earnings
• Cost of medical treatment
• Cost of therapy
• Cost of travel or other expenses
• Legal costs incurred

The failure to diagnose or treat an ectopic pregnancy can cause both physical and mental suffering. We can help you get the compensation you deserve.
