Diagnostic Information
 
Final Diagnosis For Which Treatment Was Sought Including Patient's Actual Condition
The patient presented to this provider's office as a new patient. Her past medical history revealed that she was a diabetic and hypertensive. The patient reported that she had bilateral breast cysts that had been excised in the past. The patient had complaints of symptoms suggestive of a urinary tract infection and reported that she had not been to a doctor for the past two years.
Operation, Diagnostic, Or Treatment Procedure Rendered Causing The Injury
This health care provider examined the patient. A review of symptoms revealed no complaints of breast lumps, no changes in the breast skin, no nipple discharge and no breast pain. The patient was diagnosed with a urinary tract infection so she was given a prescription for Cipro medication and asked to return in two weeks. On the next visit, this provider gave the patient a prescription to have a mammogram performed at an outside facility. The mammogram report was sent back to this provider indicating an abnormal finding and a request to have further diagnostic studies completed.
Diagnostic Code : 
Misdiagnosis Made, If Any, Of Patient's Actual Condition
The patient alleged this provider failed to follow up on an abnormal mammogram report; failure to communicate to the patient the abnormal results which resulted in a delay in diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer.
Principal Injury Giving Rise To The Claim
Left breast cancer and subsequent death.
