Everyone has a love of beauty, especially for girls. They always feel that their body is not perfect. Will you choose plastic surgery to change yourself? In 2016, a 29 year old woman from Tianjin, China became a vegetable due to brain damage after cosmetic surgery in Seoul, South Korea. Afterwards, his family took the hospital to court. After more than three years of waiting, the case has made new progress.
According to Yonhap reported on the 28th, the South Korean court recently made a judgment on the above-mentioned medical dispute case, found that the hospital was at fault and should bear 70% of the responsibility, and compensated 1.08 billion won (about 6.3 million yuan) to the female party and her family members.
On January 7, 2016, the female victim underwent double Hubei surgery in a hospital in Seoul. One hour after the operation, when the doctor sutured the incision, the woman suddenly had symptoms of dyspnea.
The doctor immediately carried out cardiopulmonary resuscitation for the woman, but there was no improvement. More than 40 minutes later, they called the emergency number and sent the woman to a nearby hospital.
Unfortunately, the next day, the woman was diagnosed with brain damage and became a vegetable. A month later, she was sent back to China and her family told the court.
Yonhap said that the double jaw operation accepted by the female party is a kind of cosmetic surgery. It is used to correct the jawbone. It can carve the face into 'V' lines, but the risk is also high, and there have been too many fatal accidents. The operation requires multiple injections of the anesthetic propofol.
The family members of the female victim believed that the hospital failed to notice the patient's dyspnea in time and was at fault; The hospital argued that the female victim suffered from alcoholic cardiomyopathy and drank alcohol just before the operation.
Finally, the Korean court ruled that the hospital was improper in first aid measures and should bear 70% of the responsibility, and compensate the female party and her family 1.08 billion won, including medical expenses, transportation expenses, income loss and spiritual compensation.
