Depression is a recognised consequence of traumatic injury, however it is a complex condition and many factors can contribute to its development, which can complicate personal injury claims.

The medicolegal challenges of breast surgery

Breast surgery, encompassing both augmentation and reduction techniques, is one of the commonest procedures performed by cosmetic surgeons. As with all surgical procedures, there are risks, and there are also some issues specific to individual procedures that both surgeons and patients should be aware of.

Medicolegal issues surrounding proof of causality

The concept of causation is central to every medicolegal case. Even if duty of care and breach can be demonstrated, causality still needs to be proven. A doctor may admit to a breach of care, but if it can be successfully argued that this did not alter the outcome of treatment, the case will fail.
