Sometimes moving the camera to a slightly different angle and using the maximum lens shading for the lens can solve the problem.
Sometimes switching to a longer focal length lens (which of course changes the image but perhaps for the better) will allow for more lens shading and allow you to get the shot. I mention that because sometimes people anticipate cropping in the darkroom but could do so in the camera instead with better results.
