Liver Cancer Linked To Contaminated Drinking Water At Camp Lejeune
An increased risk of liver cancer has been identified by medical professionals who’ve studied the contaminated water at Camp Lejeune as a particularly common diagnosis.
Liver cancer is a cancer that begins in the cells in the liver, football-sized organ that sits in the upper right portion of the abdomen, beneath the diaphragm and above the stomach.
What Chemicals in the Camp Lejeune Drinking Water are Linked to Liver Cancer?
It’s speculated that the high number of liver cancer cases at Camp Lejeune result from exposure to chemical risk factors such as Trichloroethylene (TCE) and Vinyl Chloride.
A significant source of TCE contamination came from ABC Cleaners, an off base dry cleaner located right by the Tarawa Terrace Water Treatment Plant.
Scientific evidence has also pointed to vinyl chloride, another main contaminant at Camp Lejeune, as a potential risk factor for liver cancer.
The National Cancer Institute lists a rare type of liver cancer, hepatic angiosarcoma, as potentially linked to vinyl chloride exposure.
Vinyl chloride has also been linked to Hepatic Steatosis (Fatty Liver Disease), another common diagnosis amongst those who consumed contaminated drinking water at Camp Lejeune.
Scientific evidence and further research on the relation between chemical contamination and liver cancer include the following:
Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, Environmental Health Perspectives: Mode of action of liver tumor induction by trichloroethylene and its metabolites, trichloroacetate and dichloroacetate.
Occupational & Environmental Medicine: Occupational exposure to trichloroethylene and perchloroethylene and the risk of lymphoma, liver, and kidney cancer in four Nordic countries
With the Senate passage of the PACT Act, and the imminent signing of the bill into law by President Biden, Camp Lejeune Lawsuits are able to be filed by any person exposed to contaminated water at the Marine Corps base between 1953 and 1987.
If you or a loved one was exposed to toxic water at Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune between these dates, and have been diagnosed with liver cancer, you may qualify to file a Camp Lejeune Lawsuit.

Many more diagnoses
Service members, their families, civilian workers, and countless others were diagnosed with deadly health conditions, and for years could not secure the benefits they desperately need.
What Is The Camp Lejeune Justice Act Aiming To Do?
The Camp Lejeune Justice Act is a new piece of legislation that is soon to be signed into law by President Biden.
The Camp Lejeune Justice Act affords Camp Lejeune residents the ability to sue and recover damages for exposure to the toxic substances in the water supply, one of the first times the federal government has allowed legal action of this sort.
Camp Lejeune veterans and Camp Lejeune families will be able to secure compensation for health problems and medical expenses related to the toxic chemicals they were exposed to while living on the base.
Those eligible will file suit in the U.S. District Court: Eastern District of North Carolina.
In the past, several bills were introduced to address the issue at the North Carolina military base but none have had any widespread impact for victims and families.
Now, people who were denied benefits or compensation in the past may have a fair shot at adequate compensation.
At TorHoerman Law, we believe that if we continue to focus on the people that we represent, and continue to be true to the people that we are – justice will always be served.
