Best Michigan personal injury lawyer winning highest settlements for injury accident victims in Michigan.
Our Michigan medical malpractice lawyers represent cancer patients and their families in lawsuits involving the misdiagnosis or failure to diagnose cancer cases. This includes cases involving ovarian cancer. Victims of this medical malpractice do have legal rights under Michigan law.
Ovarian cancer forms in the ovaries, and can then spread to other tissues and organs including the peritoneum and diaphragm as well as the bloodstream or lymphatic system. Most ovarian cancers are either ovarian epithelial carcinomas (cancer that begins in the cells on the surface of the ovary) or malignant germ cell tumors (cancer that begins in egg cells).
Despite the familiarity doctors have with ovarian cancer, misdiagnosis or mistreatment of lung cancer is a growing cause of medical malpractice claims.
It is important to recognize the risk factors for ovarian cancer:
Family history of ovarian cancer
Age-Women over 50 are at greater risk of developing ovarian cancer
Personal or family history of breast cancer or colon cancer
Women who have never had children are at greater risk
Hormone replacement therapy may be associated with an increased risk
Fertility drugs may increase risk
Unfortunately, too often doctors and other medical professionals fail to order tests, misdiagnose, and fail to treat ovarian cancer. Such errors can give rise to successful medical malpractice claims.
