Diesel-related Kidney Cancer
Cancers of the kidney, ureter and bladder can all be attributed to long term exposures to diesel exhaust. Unfortunately, many kidney and urothelial cancers are not diagnosed in a timely fashion and can often result in loss of a kidney. In certain circumstances, the cancer can spread from the kidney to other organs, including the lungs. Diesel-exposed workers should undergo regular health screenings for kidney and bladder cancers. Workers who have suffered years of exposures to diesel exhaust should inform their doctors about their workplace exposures and ask for available tests and screenings. The fact is, many of the same carcinogens that can be found in cigarettes are in diesel exhaust. It would follow that if health screenings are available for long-term smokers, the same screenings should be made available for diesel-exposed workers. Catching diesel-related kidney cancer can be a matter of life and death. Tell your doctors about your work and ask for the appropriate screenings.
Proving up a diesel-related kidney cancer case is complicated. We often have to rely on an entire team of experts to establish that your kidney cancer was attributable to your diesel exposures. Many lawyers don’t have the time or inclination to dedicate that much time to one case. At Diesel Injury Law, we focus our practice on niche injuries from a known toxin (diesel exhaust), allowing us to become well-versed in these specific claims.
