Adrenal cancer is a rare type of cancer that begins in the adrenal glands, small glands located above each kidney. It occurs when cells in the adrenal glands grow out of control, forming tumors that can be benign (mostly harmless) or malignant (cancerous).
Symptoms of adrenal cancer may include:
Treatment options for adrenal cancer include surgery to remove the affected gland, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, and medications to manage hormone levels.
According to the American Cancer Society, the 5-year relative survival rate for adrenal cancer is 73% when the cancer is localized, 53% when it has spread to nearby lymph nodes and structures, and 38% when it has metastasized to distant parts of the body. Delayed diagnosis of adrenal cancer can lead to more advanced stages, requiring more aggressive treatments and resulting in lower survival rates.
If you or a loved one suffered from a misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis of adrenal cancer in New York, the Porter Law Group is here to help. Our experienced attorneys and board-certified medical experts can evaluate your case at no cost to determine if you may be entitled to compensation for your pain, suffering, and increased medical expenses due to a doctor's failure to diagnose your adrenal cancer in a timely manner.
Yes, it is possible to sue for medical malpractice if a delayed diagnosis of adrenal cancer has caused you harm. However, proving medical negligence requires more than just showing that your condition has worsened. You must establish that your doctor deviated from the accepted standard of care for patients with similar symptoms and that this deviation directly caused your injuries. This can be challenging without the assistance of a skilled cancer attorney familiar with the complexities of medical malpractice law.
