Case Details

Settlement for the family of a 53-year-old woman who died of Stage IV ovarian cancer due to a gynecologist's failure to educate patient and perform appropriate diagnostic follow-up after a chocolate cyst was found.

Additional Notes

The defense claimed the risk of malignant transformation was too low to warrant informing the patient. Settlement provided financial security and a sense of justice for the family. Settlement was obtained two days before trial was set to commence.
