The pilot was wrongly told he had a chest tumor and went through months of unnecessary treatment.
He later learned from a specialist centre that he never had cancer.
The court confirmed a medical error but ruled that wider financial losses were not fully proven. Compensation was therefore limited, while remaining claims were dismissed under UAE law.
