Lawsuits for Misread Pap Smears: Do I Need to File a Lawsuit to Make a Cervical Cancer Claim?


Cervical Cancer Lawsuit Info

Persons who have been diagnosed with cervical cancer may be entitled to compensation through filing pap smear lawsuits. Women who have been diagnosed with active or advanced cervical cancer likely have a misread pap smear in their medical history. Now persons and family members of persons who have been diagnosed with cervical cancer following a misread pap test are filing cervical cancer lawsuits to obtain compensation for the pain, suffering, and medical expenses which could have been avoided.

Cervical cancer is slow to develop and an accurately-read pap smear gives providers ample time to treat the disease before it becomes life-threatening. However, when precancerous cells go unnoticed in a misread pap smear, years may pass before the first cervical cancer diagnosis. In essence, what once was a preventable disease is permitted to develop into a pervasive and potentially fatal condition, requiring invasive treatment and resulting in severe pain and suffering. Critics say pap smear mistakes can be blamed on recent changes to pap smear analysis, which rely on computer technology to choose sample areas of the pap slides for technicians to review. Intended to promote efficiency, the technology increases pressure on technicians to process results quickly and may miss vital results.

Many people wonder whether cervical cancer misdiagnosis lawsuits related to misread pap smear results will actually achieve real compensation for their families.

Similar cases, in which a plaintiff suffered from cancer as a result of a dangerous substance, register in the millions.

Cervical cancer lawsuits seek to obtain substantial compensation plaintiffs deserve and hold the relevant companies accountable for this lapse in effective medical treatment. Evidence suggests efficiencies in pap smear analysis procedures are to blame for an uptick in cervical cancer cases related to misread pap smears. These cases will likely be consolidated as multidistrict litigation (MDL), a legal procedure that allows similar cases to be resolved at once, while still preserving the unique details of each case. The settlement awarded to each plaintiff or family is factored based on the individual details of each case, as well as the type and degree of suffering involved.
