Your chance of surviving cancer depends largely on the stage of the cancer when it is detected. Failure to diagnose cancer in its earliest stage can mean you will have to endure a more painful and rigorous regiment of treatment than would otherwise be requisite. It may also mean death.
Failure to Diagnose Cancer cases
- Cervical cancer is easily detectable by a smear test. When caught in the early stages, survival rates are high. All too often there are errors in screening or misinterpretation that result in a failure to diagnose cervical cancer – potentially leading to infertility or death.
- Breast cancer is a very curable cancer. It responds well to early treatment. Failure to diagnose breast cancer in the breast tissue can lead to single / double mastectomy or even loss of life.
- Colon Cancer is another cancer that responds well to early treatment. When the physician does not properly evaluate and address complaints of rectal bleeding, there is usually failure to diagnose colon cancer. Colon cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths.
