Liam Moran had to have his right kidney removed because of cancer - a hospital has apologised
A hospital has apologised in the High Court for the failings in care to a man who later had to have his right kidney removed because of cancer.
In the High Court on Tuesday, 45-year old Mr Moran settled his action against the HSE. His counsel, Jeremy Maher SC, instructed by Cian O’Carroll Solicitors told the court that an apology from the hospital's general manager, Margaret Kelleher, could be read to the court. Fire protection engineer Mr Moran, of Coole, Mullingar, had a number of tests at the hospital in 2009, including a CT scan of his kidneys and it was reported that a lesion did not show features of a complex cyst. It was recommended he return for a repeat examination after several months.
In the proceedings, it was claimed there was an alleged failure to care for Mr Moran in a proper, skilful, diligent or timely manner and a failure to treat him when the tumour in his right kidney was amenable to minimally invasive treatment.
