Ear, nose and throat (ENT) claims
Many Ear, Nose and Throat departments have a very high workload resulting in many patients being examined and operated on by relatively inexperienced doctors.
Inevitably this leads to sub-standard care and problems for Ear Nose and Throat patients.
Conditions that can affect the ears, nose and throat can include the following:
- Adenoid surgery
- Grommets
- Hearing or Deafness
- Infections of the Ear
- Nasal Polyps
- Perforated Ear Drum
- Sinus Infection
- Tinnitus
- Tonsil Surgery
In some ear, nose and throat operations facial nerve damage may occur. It is possible that this is a recognised complication of the type of operation, but it may also be caused through medical negligence.
Ear, nose and throat operations may also cause damage to the nerves linked to the vocal chords, affecting speech. Senses can be affected, such as the sense of smell, hearing and sight.
