Endometrial (Uterine) Cancer Screening Protocols in NY
The American Cancer Society recommends that, at the time of menopause, all women should be told about the risks and symptoms of endometrial cancer. Women should report any unexpected bleeding or spotting to their doctors.
Some women – because of their history – may need to consider having a yearly endometrial biopsy, and doctors should educate patients with these histories on the importance such tests play in the early detection of endometrial cancer.
Doctors should also educate their patients on the relative benefits of regular pelvic exams and Pap tests.
The lawyers at the Porter Law Group have secured millions of dollars* for women whose endometrial cancer diagnosis was delayed. We can recover compensation for you if your doctors:
- Failed to perform a pelvic exam.
- Failed to order timely Pap tests or other screening tests.
- Failed to order a timely endometrial biopsy.
- Failed to recommend a hysterectomy.
- Failed to properly read or interpret your Pap test results.
- Failed to properly learn and respond to your pertinent family history.
- Failure to order appropriate follow-up tests.
Your doctors owe it to you to order the appropriate tests, and to properly interpret the results. If you’ve been denied available treatments, or you’re now facing a decreased survival rate because of your doctors’ failure to diagnose your cancer, call us for a free case evaluation.
