When deciding whether the failure to diagnose ovarian cancer was due to the inability to diagnose the disease because of a lack of symptoms or because of medical malpractice, it is important to consider all of the factors relevant to the case.
Generally, the failure to diagnose ovarian cancer or the misdiagnosis of ovarian cancer will be considered medical malpractice if a doctor failed to act like a reasonable doctor and was negligent in making a diagnosis.
