From Charleston County, S.C.: A lawsuit claims medical information was withheld from a patient, potentially leading to a terminal cancer diagnosis. The patient, Shannon James, underwent a cardiac screening that revealed a lung nodule, but she was not informed about it for nearly three years. By the time the error was discovered, James had developed stage 4 lung cancer.

The lawsuit alleges gross negligence and medical malpractice against a hospital and doctor. Further details about the case are available from the source. A hospital and doctor are being sued by James and her husband, with the lawsuit claiming the delayed diagnosis could have been prevented with proper communication and follow-up.
