A civil process against the health network started in Vienna on Monday. A widower is sure that his wife’s life would have been saved with timely treatment. The 28-year-old died in October 2023, two weeks after a lip enlargement. According to the forensic doctor, the cause of death was a rare nerve disease.
The widower cannot stop tears in the Regional Court of Civil Law. Time and again he wipes his eyes when the invited doctors remember his wife’s treatment in October 2023. The 28-year-old Viennese had visited the Floridsdorf clinic, then the Donaustadt Clinic, two weeks after she had a spa bum sprayed her lips.
Patient was very scared
The young mother was sent home four times by the outpatient doctor before he was intramural on 17 October. Two days later Dilber’s Hart stopped stopping – the “Kroon” reported. “Your condition has deteriorated day after day. She had no strength at all, could no longer go to the toilet alone, “said the widower on Monday in the Palace of Justice.
Probably: Connection to lip injection
On Friday, October 13, his wife was first presented in the Donaustadt Clinic, on 15 and 16 October, she was taken to the hospital with the rescue. “It was always the same. Blood acceptance, scanning and then she was sent home,” reports the 36-year-old of a maximum of eight hours of long-term outpatient clinic. On October 17, the recording: “We literally begged for it.”
Three treating doctors say in the negotiation. A neurologist remembers: “She complained about radiating pain on her face, especially while chewing.” The patient was worried that this connection was in connection with spraying the lip and was very scared.
Highly enlarged lymph nodes
But the findings were not clear. Significantly enlarged lymph nodes were diagnosed by the radiologist, who could also have indicated a tumor, what is the reason why an MRI date was agreed after the weekend. The doctor who let the woman go home on Monday saw “no acute medical reason she had to be accepted”.
According to forensic medicine, an acute autoimmune process as a result of a rare nerve disorder was the cause of Dilber’s death. “My client is convinced that his wife’s life would have been saved in timely intramural admission,” says lawyer Sascha Flatz. He complains with the Vienna Health Association for more than 60,000 euros in mourning pain surcharge, funeral costs and the start of maintenance. The shock of the death of the woman and mother of the daughter is deep in the widower: “You can no longer handle life, regardless of how much time passes.”
Medical report commissioned
The court has now given an expert opinion whether an admission would have been medically indicated. The process was postponed.
