I waited 26 months to find out I had breast cancer.

An elderly woman spent more than two years (26 months) waiting for the results of a breast biopsy that showed she had breast cancer. The case occurred at the Amadora Sintra Hospital and was reported by the patient’s granddaughter, who filed a complaint with the Health Regulatory Authority (ERS).

The elderly woman underwent a biopsy in November 2020 and only found out in February 2023 that she had breast cancer. “After a long search, we learned the result only on February 13, 2023, during a consultation with the current family doctor,” the granddaughter said.

And only after the complaint the user returned for a consultation with a gynecologist in this department of the hospital. The ERS hospital admitted that the senology department of the gynecological service “is in a situation of extreme shortage of doctors due to the departure of several specialists to other health care institutions without adequate replacement.”

According to the ERS, a hospital, once satisfied that installed capacity is not available, should refer the user “to another SNS organization or to an organization in the agreed sector.” The ERS list of discussions and precautions in the 1st quarter of the year mentions a clinic in Amarante, where the dentist practiced medicine and psychology. The clinic was ordered to close.
