Cancer file given to husband; HEALTH.

THE devastated husband of a woman who died after her breast cancer was misdiagnosed put his concerns to the Health Minister last night.

Angry Karl Henry told Mary Harney the A&E department where his wife was treated is "dysfunctional".

He wants an independent review of his wife Ann Moriarty's care and fresh examination of other recent cases.

He was given a copy of a HSE-commissioned review of his wife's case by the breast care team at University College Hospital, Galway.

Mrs Moriarty, 53, died in April after a June 2007 X-Ray was misread at Ennis General Hospital. The HSE found a radiologist "failed to identify something highly suggestive of a metastatic lesion".
