Medical Malpractice Side Effects: Appendicitis

Appendicitis is one of the top five diseases associated with malpractice. This is because appendicitis is difficult to diagnose in the emergency room, as there are many other causes of abdominal pain. This may lead to unneccesary removal of the appendix. If appendicitis is overlooked, then it can have severe consequences. Unfortuantely appendicitis is often misdiagnosed in younger patients, especially infants.
