Quote from: insearchofanswers on October 31, 2016, 08:04:32 PMWho died after LL? These are the examples I have found in the boards.
- Catagni's patient died from fat embolism.
- MasterHY is probably dead according to his friends. He had his surgery with Betz and then went home with the best doctors in the world and he died after his 4th surgery.
- Guy in Barcelona guesthouse died after femur fracture (not Monegal's patient)
- Young girl died in OR after LL and plaster removal and her organs disappeared in Barcelona so the authopsia couldn't be conducted.
- African Girl died in India after LL.
You can add Monegal patient who committed suicide (6) and the Korean star who died after surgery (7).

Quote from: hanshi on November 06, 2016, 07:56:02 AMThere is no final proof that he died, however there is no reason to believe he is still alive either. As already mentioned i was in contact with him and there was no reason for him to stop answering me. He wanted to sue Betz and i promised to help him.
In his 4th surgery he got his 4th nail plus a bone graft for his left leg. The bone was taken from his hip. It was a big surgery because they had to fill a 10cm gap. He wrote to me :“ I am recovering from the surgery, it was pretty intense, I had a lot of pain and my leg seemed to be reacting a bit strange to the bone graft. I also have a lot of discomfort in the hip area where the bone graft was done, and I think it will be awhile before get somewhere with all of this.”
There was much more in his email. Shortly afterwards he stopped replying to me. That was in May 2015. So i'm quite convinced he died.

2) I said there was a patient who died in the guesthouse and MM had a complication again. Was it false? No. No defamation then. It's true there was a guy in the guesthouse who died from a femur fracture and that Musicmaker had a new complication. When people said the guy who died was not a Monegal patient I accepted that because I don't know more details than that but I cannot accept new lies about Musicmaker because I know she is having complications and went to hospital because people from the guesthouse confirmed this.

Quote from: Koi on November 03, 2016, 08:30:45 AM I talked with this girl's family and I can tell this casw is real, BUT she didn't die because of the LL procedure itself. There was a negligence measuring the dose of anesthesia, and she died from a heart attack (she was 11 y.o.). And no, Monegal was never involved into this incident since he stopped working with that medical team before.

Quote from: notatroll on May 09, 2018, 08:01:59 PMIt's a hard pill to swallow. My doctor told me it would be easy but he lied. If I had known, I'd have never done it. I didn't get complications but the pain was so strong I couldn't imagine. The wheelchair makes you feel stagnant and useless. I used it for months but some patients have used it for years. Life as a cripple is sad. I don't know how those patients managed to keep suicidal thoughts away (one of them commited suicide though)
Quote from: Oh So Arrogant on May 11, 2018, 12:39:45 AMThis is so incredibly sad. Dr. Monegal causes the problems with his horrible surgical technique, then he can't fix the problems, so the patient feels helpless and takes their own life.

Quote from: 1683131665 on May 16, 2018, 06:36:11 AMToday I saw a news. A Korean wanted to be a star but had surgery because of height restrictions. He had a high fever shortly after the operation, but the hospital gave him only a few pills. He was taken to hospital the next day. The treatment was declared dead after five days.
The autopsy results were caused by the stenosis of pulmonary valve. The location of the operation was in Seoul. No specific hospitals or doctors were announced.
Quote from: 1683131665 on May 18, 2018, 01:43:47 AMI only have Chinese news links. Because I'm not Korean. I just asked Dr. Li’s assistant. It was determined that this tragedy is true. It happened in July 2016. It was exposed by the media a few days ago.
Note: The accident doctor is not Dr Li

YOU HAVE ALSO PATIENTS WITH TERRIBLE COMPLICATIONS THAT LAST YEARS LIKE MUSICMAKER (MONEGAL) OR UNICORN888 (GUICHET). MUSICMAKER WAS ABOUT TO DIE TOO,
Quote from: iwontallow on May 19, 2018, 11:34:33 PMI heard that Musicmaker was about to die too in one of the surgeries. She had a very bad reaction to anesthesia and blood loss. Other people developped blood clots. They are very dangerous. These patients didn't die but death is a risk you have to face with this surgery. Doctors who underplay risks should be discarded as options for LL.
