San Jose medical malpractice attorney Bradley M. Corsiglia, founding partner of the law firm Corsiglia, McMahon & Allard, has secured a $3.5 million cancer misdiagnosis settlement against a major healthcare provider for a young Silicon Valley engineer and father now having to deal with incurable lung cancer. The 37 year old electrical engineer is married and has a 5 year old son.
Corsiglia contended that the first chest x-ray was misread and that it showed a suspicious lesion that should have been reported along with the recommendation to obtain a chest CT scan which would have led to the diagnosis of stage one lung cancer, which is curable. Instead, the cancer misdiagnosis resulted in a finding of incurable cancer.
"Early diagnosis and treatment is the key to treating cancer. This delayed cancer misdiagnosis has lowered my client's chance of survival,"
said Mr. Corsiglia. The party names are part of confidential settlement terms.
