Abstract
Malpractice litigation involving patients with carcinoma of the breast has been evaluated in United States of America (USA). The extent of litigation in breast cancer has not been published in UK and malpractice claims in relation to overall breast care have not been published before. We sought to study and evaluate all the litigation claims in relation to breast care with the National Health Service Litigation Authority (NHSLA) from May 1995 to September 2005. We also studied changes in litigation claims and outcomes in incidents reported before and after January 1, 2000.
