Ecuadorian Woman Dies After Liposuction Surgery in Rome: Three Under Investigation
A 47-year-old Ecuadorian woman has tragically died in a hospital in Rome after experiencing complications following a liposuction operation at a private clinic over the weekend. According to sources, the surgery, which took place on Sunday afternoon, was abruptly interrupted due to complications that arose during the procedure. The woman was subsequently rushed to Policlinico Umberto I Hospital, where medical staff attempted to revive her but were unfortunately unsuccessful.
In light of this tragic incident, Rome prosecutors have launched an investigation, placing three individuals under investigation for negligent manslaughter and culpable homicide. These individuals include a physician, an anaesthetist, and a nurse involved in the operation. Additionally, the private clinic where the procedure was performed has been impounded as part of the ongoing investigation.
This incident raises important concerns around the safety and regulation of cosmetic surgeries, particularly in private clinics. As the investigation unfolds, it emphasizes the need for stringent oversight in such medical practices to prevent similar tragedies in the future.
