50 year old woman dies of heart attack after liposuction PDF Print E-mail
Wednesday, 01 August 2007
An investigation has been launched into the death of a 50 year old UK businesswoman who died just two days after undergoing liposuction in a UK hospital.
Pauline Bainbridge, a mother of two, suffered a massive heart attack just 48 hours after the liposuction procedure and died. She had undergone the liposuction to her thighs at a private UK clinic, Capio Fulwood Hospital in Preston, in advance of a planned vacation to Florida. UK authorities have now commenced an investigation into her death in order to determine if there was a link between the liposuction procedure and her subsequent death.

"She wasn't vain, but she wanted liposuction so she could wear tailored trousers," her husband Alan said.

The couple were together at their apartment in Manchester on July 22 when Mrs Bainbridge complained of feeling unwell.

"She fainted, but the paramedics who arrived didn't seem too concerned - so I didn't worry too much," her husband said.
 
"I followed in the car and when I arrived at hospital, they said she was extremely poorly. She had suffered a massive heart attack, but because she was so fit she survived. She was on life support and they fought really hard to save her, but in the end there was nothing they could do."

"We're not blaming anyone. We don't know why she died. It's a terrible tragedy." he added.
 
"But it could have been a complication from the operation. The doctors said it could have been a blood clot or an aneurism. We'll have to wait and see what the coroner says."

Ann Cooke, clinical operations manager at Capio Fulwood Hospital, said in a statement: 'We're very saddened by Mrs Bainbridge's death and our thoughts are with her family at this time. We are co-operating fully with the ongoing investigation and are awaiting a full report when it is complete."
