Complications of Neck Fusion after an Illinois Car Accident

Blog Post by Barry G. Doyle

While neck surgery may be necessary if you have sustained a severe neck injury in a Chicago car accident, there are complications you can unfortunately suffer as well. Any type of surgery comes with inherent risks, which should be explained to you before the surgery takes place.  Some of the complications that can happen with neck fusion surgery include: 

  • anesthesia risks;
  • infection;
  • excessive bleeding;
  • spinal cord or nerve damage;
  • pain in the site of the bone graft;
  • blood clots;
  • bone graft rejection; and
  • failed neck fusion (metal implants break).

Complications can lead to further injuries which only add to the already expensive medical costs an individual may be facing. The surgery itself as well as recovery time can be expensive as you’ll likely have to miss work while recuperating. The costs for your medical care along with lost wages and other expenses related to the treatment may be recoverable through an Illinois personal injury claim.Consulting with a Chicago car crash lawyer is the best way to understand not only your legal rights but the options for recovering compensation you may have available after a Chicago car accident leads to injuries.If neck surgery becomes necessary as a result of a serious Chicago car accident, you should immediately consult with a Chicago car crash lawyer.   A lawyer can help determine liability for your car accident, collect the evidence necessary to prove negligence and the extent of your injuries, and protect your legal rights throughout the claims process. When to Hire a Chicago Car Crash Lawyer  A Chicago car crash lawyer at the Law Offices of Barry G.
