What medical errors can lead to prostate cancer?

Prostate Cancer is a peculiar type of cancer, in that there are standard tests that are done. Screening tests to see whether there is an additional cancer. The PSA test, is the usual test there's a Pre-PSA test also done and there's a whole level of 4.0's the cut off point when caution needs to be exerted by the physician. And I've seen cases where the prostate has gone, the PSA has gone as high as 18 and the doctors for some reason just over look it and they don't see it. The report gets in the doctor's file. The patient is never contacted, and then when symptoms really start developing, it's too late. I'm Steven North. I specialize in medical malpractice litigation.
