We represented a forty year-old woman in this District of Columbia medical malpractice case. The patient had a screening mammogram at which time the radiologist found an abnormality in the right breast and recommended to the primary care physician that a repeat study be performed to rule out cancer. The primary care physician failed to follow this recommendation and failed to inform the patient about the abnormality that was found. One year later, the patient had another screening mammogram, which led to the diagnosis of breast cancer. The patient claimed that the one-year delay in the diagnosis and treatment of her breast cancer led to the spread of her cancer and to a significant reduction of her life expectancy.
