misdiagnosis

one patient with 3 episodes of fitting. came to me.

A CT brain was done, it showed a small 1cm x 0.5cm at frontal cortex. subsequently radiologist reported as a small meningioma over the left frontal cortex.

Urgent referral was made to Mahkota Medical Centre. No such brain lesion was noted from the 2nd scan.

Patient's father called and said why i told him that there is a brain tumour. Since the radiological report say so, i have to tell them such thing.

Any discrepancy have to be born by the respective radiological doctor. and not me.
