Re: Part of a catherization left in my beast after 4 years

If a foreign object was negligently left in place following prior surgery, and if it has caused you pain and suffering and/or economic injury, then you may have a case for medical negligence.

Consult a personal injury attorney near you. Your bar association will recommend some if you don't have other sources.

Initial consultations and case evaluations are usually at no cost - ask first.
