At P.A. Duffy & Co solicitors we deal with a range of cancer misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis claims.
Unfortunately cancer is an increasingly common disease in Ireland. The latest research shows that there are 24,000 new invasive cases diagnosed each year and is estimated to double by 2045. Fortunately, treatment is becoming more successful and being diagnosed in the early stages increases the likelihood of recovery exponentially. Therefore, a misdiagnosis or a missed diagnosis can have profound and fatal effects.
A misdiagnosis of cancer comprises an incorrect diagnosis as an alternative condition in the patient. Alternatively, a missed diagnosis is composed of a neglected or delayed diagnosis of cancer. There are a range of reasons as to why these delays occur, however, these are preventable.
