Girl, 17, dies after cosmetic surgery operation goes wrong leaving her with killer blood clot in her lung | The Sun
A TEENAGER has died after a cosmetic surgery operation went wrong – leaving her with a blood clot in her lung.
Maythe Rudek Garcia was just 17 when she opted to go under the knife in the tragic procedure that cost her her life.
The teenager's family have not disclosed the nature of the operation – but she suffered a pulmonary embolism.
Maythe was rushed to hospital in her native Brazil but could not be saved from the fatal clot.
Brazilian law states that teenagers under the age of 18 need parental consent before going under the knife.
She was the daughter local businessman Marcos Garcia and her mother Maria da Graca Sicuro Rudek was once a candidate to be mayor of Contenda in southern Brazil.
