The early detection of cancer is key to curing and managing the disease, with recovery rates for early detection many times higher than those cancers detected later in their development. When a medical provider's failure to diagnose cancer in the early stages allows the disease to progress unchecked, this negligence results in pain, more medical procedures and expenses, a much longer treatment and recovery period, and in the worst cases, preventable loss of life.
While no one can predict for certain whether a cancer, caught early, could have been completely cured, the chances of that possibility are high, especially in some cancers like breast cancer, where early detection offers excellent survival rates. When lab results are misread, and radiological errors occur so that the cancer isn't noted in the results, the consequences are devastating. The disease progresses and isn't treated until a much later stage when the prognosis is not as good.
Other types of cancer malpractice involve delayed treatment, incorrect treatment, lack of informed consent for procedures like chemotherapy and radiation treatments that result in serious side effects, incorrect cancer surgeries, and medical problems due to in hospital and/or post-operative infections.
Some cancers are hard to treat and even harder to detect when in the early stages. But whether or not malpractice and misdiagnosis occurred can be determined by expert cancer malpractice lawyers. New York malpractice lawyers are experienced dealing with cancer malpractice cases. They understand the long-term difficulties of dealing with the expenses and grief that cancer malpractice causes.
