A patient of Moscow’s selfie-taking plastic surgeon has died after undergoing breast lift surgery. Mother of two Ekaterina Kiseleva, 32, was pronounced dead in the clinic from heart failure, medical sources revealed today.
Surgeon Grigory Perekrestov, 31, well known for posing for selfies with his bare-breasted patients, has not commented on the death at his Triumph Palace clinic. A criminal probe has since been launched after the patient’s mother claimed her daughter died due to ‘negligence’. Mum, Evgenia, said: ‘All our complaints are deleted, our calls are ignored. We are in despair. ‘We are killed, our life is over. Our whole family is cut to the root.
‘A beautiful, healthy, intelligent woman entrusted these monsters to remove her defect. ‘They took away not only money from her, but also life, which she gave entirely to her children and her work.’
Evgenia alleged that anaesthetist Zeinal Nedzhafov, 24, left before her daughter – a mother of two who worked in the water industry – woke up, ‘flouting regulations’. Ekaterina had defied her family to have the five hour breast lift surgery costing £1,830, after receiving assurances it was safe. ‘My daughter was completely healthy,’ said the distraught mother.
‘There were no resuscitation facilities in this clinic. ‘As I later learned, the administrator first called in a cardiologist when problems arose. She ran with her child from home, tried to re-start my daughter’s heart, but with no result.
‘Only then did they call an ambulance.’ Her daughter was dead for two hours before she was told, she claims. A criminal case has been launched by the Russian Investigative Committee, which handles serious crimes, a spokesman confirmed.
