Surgical staplers are supposed to save lives, but when their misuse or malfunction causes catastrophic damage, the effects can be devastating. A Miami surgical stapling injury lawyer at Kaire & Heffernan is ready to help if you or a loved one was harmed during surgery.
Our surgical error attorneys have seen how a routine procedure can quickly become a medical emergency when a surgical stapler fails. We could help you uncover the truth about what happened and seek the compensation you deserve.
Surgical staplers are used to close internal wounds, connect tissue, and assist in gastrointestinal and thoracic procedures. But when used improperly—or when the device itself is defective—they could cause internal bleeding, sepsis, organ damage, and even death.
Common failures include misfiring, using the wrong size staples, or staples being left inside the body. These complications often occur because of poor technique, inadequate training, or failure to monitor the patient after surgery.
Our team at Kaire & Heffernan will investigate every detail of your operation. We will collect operative reports, device records, and expert testimony to prove that the standard of care was not met. In many cases, our Miami lawyers will demonstrate that stapling injuries are the result of surgical malpractice.
A stapling injury is not just painful—it could require additional surgeries, long hospital stays, and extensive physical recovery. Infections from internal staple errors can spread quickly and lead to further complications, including permanent organ damage. Some patients are left with colostomies or feeding tubes due to gastrointestinal stapling errors.
The emotional trauma can also be profound. Patients may feel betrayed, helpless, and angry, especially when no one admits fault. At Kaire & Heffernan, we will not let hospitals and device manufacturers shift the blame. Our attorneys will hold negligent Miami providers and companies accountable for the harm you have endured due to surgical stapler complications.
