Face-Lift Played Major Part in Woman's Death

Face-Lift Played Major Part in Woman's Death, City Finds - New York Times:

You may remember the story several weeks ago about an Irish citizen who died the morning after a face lift in a plastic surgeon's office in New York. I've kept a Google Alert on this subject and this popped up today:

" An investigation by the New York City Medical Examiner's Office has concluded that the death of a 42-year-old Irish woman earlier this year was caused in significant part by face-lift surgery she underwent in the Manhattan office of a doctor who has repeatedly been sued for malpractice. "
Not much (any) detail. Maybe more will come out soon.
