Railroad Exposures and Blood Cancer
Railroad exposure has been linked with a variety of types of cancer including blood cancer and lung cancer. This includes lymphoma and leukemia, as well as myelodysplastic disorder.
Benzene can increase the risk of blood cancers, including leukemia, among railroad workers. Solvents and diesel fuels contain benzene. It is also inhaled by railroad workers who deal with rail ties with creosote.
Benzene
Benzene, a colorless liquid that can easily ignite in the air, vaporizes quickly. It is a toxic chemical that could harm the blood vessels of the body and bone marrow. It is a risk factor for leukemia as well as other blood cancers, by reducing the amount of red blood cells present in the blood, causing them to weaken and altering the DNA in Blood cancer lawsuit settlements cells. It can also trigger menstrual disorders and anemia and also a decrease in immunity and lower fertility levels. If you are exposed benzene over a long period of time, especially those working in industries that manufacture or use benzene, could be at greatest risk.
In China, the first studies linking benzene and blood cancers were conducted. The study found that people exposed to benzene were more likely develop leukemia, myeloma, and other Blood cancer railroad lawsuit cancers than those who weren't exposed.
Benzene is one of the most common chemicals that railroad workers are exposed to at work. The danger of exposure is greater when the worker works in an oil refinery or gas station, chemical company, rubber plant or a coke manufacturing business.
Creosote
The dangerous chemical creosote is used to treat railroad ties and other wood. Railroad workers are exposed to creosote by breathing in the vapors, or by contact with the chemical on their skin. This type of exposure could cause lung cancer, or blood tumors.
Acute Myelogenous (AML) Leukemia is a Blood cancer railroad settlements disease that affects white blood cells that fight off infection. AML is linked to exposure to benzene and other chemicals, like creosote, coaltar and benzene.
Rail workers are also exposed to pesticides, herbicides and other chemicals used to remove undesirable plants in railroad yards and on right-of-ways. These chemicals can increase the risk of cancers in the blood by causing bone-marrow cells to produce abnormal cells that don't work properly.
Exposure to these hazardous chemicals can result in a myriad of health problems for railroad employees. Railroad workers suffering from a medical condition caused by their work on the railroad may submit a claim for compensation under the FELA. Our law firm has recovered compensation for railroad workers who have been injured who were diagnosed with blood cancers, as well as other serious health issues caused by their work on the railroad.
Coal Tar
It is a dark, smoky liquid used to treat skin conditions like psoriasis or seborrheic dermititis. It's made up of phenols polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and PAHs. It is able to lessen flaking, scaling, and itching if used as directed. If used over a prolonged period, it can have negative effects. Coal tar can be found in a myriad of other products like gels, creams and soaks. One study revealed that the woman who used ointments made of coal tar for 50 days had high levels of pyrene and benz[a]pyrene in the breast milk of her child.
Creosote exposure can increase the risk of blood cancers, such as leukemia among railroad workers. Creosote is a carcinogen group called PAHs that can cause leukemia and cancers of other types.
The Railroad Injury Firm of Doran & Murphy represents railroad workers who have contracted a blood cancer, such as leukemia resulting from exposure at work. In these cases, damages could include medical expenses as well as future costs for care as well as loss of income and much more. Contact us to schedule an appointment.
Herbicides and Pesticides
Herbicides can be employed to kill undesirable plants, like weeds. They are applied to railroad yards, right-ofways and other areas to prevent vegetation from blocking tracks. They also help manage weeds in fields. In addition, they are often applied in ponds and lakes to control algae and other unwanted plants that interfere with fishing or swimming.
Studies have linked pesticide exposure with various types of blood cancer. However the results of these studies are inconsistent and have been attributed to a variety of limitations inherent to cohort and case-control designs. This includes differences in exposure levels and types, as well as the methods used to apply pesticides, the covariates that are studied and follow-up times.
Certain studies have linked pesticides to an increased risk of developing non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Other studies have not. Additionally, some studies have linked pesticides with shingles and thyroid disease. A few pesticides have been shown to be carcinogenic to humans, such as the phenoxy herbicides 2,4,5-T and lindane. These pesticides are the primary source of dioxin contamination in surface water and sediment.
Lead
Lead is a highly-toxic metal that causes damage to nearly every organ in the human body. It is particularly dangerous for children who may experience long-term effects on their performance, learning and intelligence. It also impacts adults and can result in kidney damage, hypertension and anemia. For women who are pregnant it can lead to stillbirth, miscarriage or low birth weight.
It is found in soils that were damaged by mining or burning fossil fuels. It can also be found in gasoline, paint, batteries, blood cancer injury settlement solder, pipes, pottery and roofing materials. It is also used in bullets, and time spent at firing ranges can expose workers to it. Lead is usually consumed by children when they are young. It is derived from paint nail polish, flakes of paint, or toys that have been contaminated with lead.
A blood lead test can determine how much lead is present in the body. Patients with levels of 45 mcg/dL or higher require treatment, which entails giving the patient medicine that binds lead in their bloodstream. This helps the body to eliminate the lead. This is known as EDTA Chelation therapy. People who have high levels of lead in their blood are typically offered a treatment to flush out their stomachs and the intestines.
