Cancer is a disease that has likely affected every single person in the UK at some point. With cancer being such a common disease I know plenty of friends and family who have suffered from it over my lifetime. One day we’ll find a cure – but until that day comes, we rely on the NHS to diagnose and treat cancer to give victims the best chance at surviving longer or recovering entirely.

But when cancer is misdiagnosed and there are delays in diagnosing it, people suffer.

All invasive operations – no matter how big or small – come with certain risks that can be unavoidable. But some risks can be avoided and some errors or incidents that occur can be spotted and rectified far sooner than they are.

In this article we will briefly discuss the rights of a patient who has suffered due to an accidental cut or incidental damage caused during an invasive procedure, and where they stand from a claims point of view.
