Cork family settle case over care given to 68-year-old woman by Cork University Hospital

A man and his three children who sued over the care given at Cork University Hospital to his 68-year old wife who had thyroid cancer and died have settled their High Court actions.

It was claimed there was an alleged failure to investigate properly whether radioactive iodine therapy could be provided at the hospital to Eileen Hyland from Mitchelstown, Co. Cork, who was on dialysis.
