News Media Reports of Patient Deaths Following 'Medical Tourism' for
Cosmetic Surgery and Bariatric Surgery
Reports of Patient Deaths Following Medical Tourism
Author: TURNER, LEIGH
Journal: Developing world bioethics
ISSN: 1471-8731 Date: 04/2012
Volume: 12 Issue: 1 Page: 21 - 34

ABSTRACT Contemporary scholarship examining clinical outcomes in medical
travel for cosmetic surgery identifies cases in which patients traveled
abroad for medical procedures and subsequently returned home with
infections and other surgical complications. Though there are
peer-reviewed articles identifying patient deaths in cases where patients
traveled abroad for commercial kidney transplantation or stem cell
injections, no scholarly publications document deaths of patients who
traveled abroad for cosmetic surgery or bariatric surgery. Drawing upon
news media reports extending from 1993 to 2011, this article identifies
and describes twenty-six reported cases of deaths of individuals who
traveled abroad for cosmetic surgery or bariatric surgery. Over half of
the reported deaths occurred in two countries. Analysis of these news
reports cannot be used to make causal claims about why the patients died."
