Water at Camp Lejeune Linked to Multiple Diseases and Conditions

Cancer, diseases, birth defects, and other illnesses have been linked to Camp Lejeune’s dangerously toxic water contamination.

Tetrachloroethylene, also known as perchloroethylene (PCE), trichloroethylene (TCE), benzene, and vinyl chloride were identified as the most harmful chemicals in the water supply.

Cancers and Diseases Caused by Camp Lejeune's Contaminated Water

As part of the Camp Lejeune Justice Act of 2022, the list of conditions associated with exposure that may qualify victims for compensation has grown exponentially to include the following:

  • Aplastic anemia
  • Babies being small for gestational age
  • Bladder cancer
  • Brain cancer
  • Breast cancer
  • Cardiac defects
  • Cervical cancer
  • End-stage renal disease
  • Esophageal cancer
  • Eye defects
  • Fetal death
  • Hepatic steatosis
  • Hodgkin lymphoma
  • Impaired immune system function
  • Infertility
  • Kidney cancer
  • Leukemia
  • Liver cancer
  • Liver cirrhosis
  • Low birth weight
  • Lung cancer
  • Major malformations
  • Miscarriage
  • Mood effects (anxiety or depression)
  • Multiple myeloma
  • Nasal passages blocked with bone tissue
  • Neural tube defects
  • Neurobehavioral effects (performance deficits such as delayed recall or ALS)
