Misdiagnosis and Delayed Treatment of Colon Cancer
Delays in GP and Hospital investigation of symptoms of colon cancer can turn a fully cureable disease into a fatal illness.
Phone Darbys for free today on 0800 524 4349, or email us, if you or someone you know has suffered as a result of colon cancer misdiagnosis or delayed treatment.
Investigation and Treatment of Colon Cancer
Doctors should respond to early symptoms of bowel/colon cancer such as change in bowel habit, changes in faeces, blood in faeces, weight loss, and fatigue by arranging proper investigation. Basic investigations include rectal examination, endoscopy, blood tests, and barium enema with x ray.
When colon cancer is found and treated before it has spread from the immediately surrounding tissue, the prospects of a full cure are excellent. Doctors assess the extent of cancer by looking at three things:
1. Tumour size and the extent of spread in the tissues of the bowel
2. Has the cancer spread into the lymph nodes and if so how many
3. Has the cancer spread to other organs
The type of treatment for bowel and colon cancer and long term prognosis are largely dependent on the size and spread of the cancer.
Treatment ranges from the simple removal of a polyp showing signs of cancer through to removal of part of the bowel either with or without the need for a temporary colostomy, to a combination of surgery and then chemo and radiotherapy.
Claim Compensation for Misdiagnosis and Delayed Treatment of Colon Cancer
We have successfully helped patients whose symptoms have gone unheeded, whose investigations have been inadequate, and for whom time delays have resulted in a progression of the cancer.
A compensation claim will give you the full information about your disease, your treatment, your future, and will result in a payment of compensation to help provide the care and assistance you need, to recompense you for your loss of earnings, loss of pension, and help look after your family.
Darbys colon cancer compensation solicitors are nationally recognised as experts in the Legal 500 and Chambers Legal Directories and by both the Law Society and patients campaigning charity Action against Medical Accidents (AvMA).
