Woman from Wales died after gastric sleeve surgery in Turkey, inquest hears
Briefly

The inquest revealed that Janet Savage, who sought gastric sleeve surgery in Turkey, tragically died from acute bleeding loss due to a severe injury to her abdominal aorta.
Alison Ergun, a client service administrator for Reginis Health Travel, recounted Savage’s initial inquiry regarding surgery to lose weight while on Ozempic, which she communicated via Facebook.
Despite attempts to repair a major artery trauma, Janet Savage suffered a cardiac arrest during the surgery and succumbed the following day, highlighting the risks associated with overseas medical procedures.
The coroner's findings underscored the potential dangers of travelling abroad for surgery, particularly for weight loss, as evidenced by Savage's tragic outcome.
