The Ministry of Health shut down yesterday a cosmetic clinic in Phnom Penh after a botched weight loss surgery claimed the life of a woman. Ngy Mean Heng, director of Municipal Health Department, said yesterday that it was the second such incident in the year in Phnom Penh and the Ministry had revoked the licence of the clinics involved to avoid further cases happening.

 

“The disciplinary council of Ministry of Health is looking into the case and the owner of the Borin Esthetic Centre or doctor who performed the surgery will face legal action after the Ministry finishes its investigation,” he said. The Ministry shut the clinic on Wednesday after Sinuon Rithiya, 34, a resident of Kampong Speu province, died a day after her surgery at the clinic in Phnom Penh.

 

A statement issued by Calmette Hospital director Nhem Sophoeun on May 21 said that Sinuon Rithiya was hospitalised on May 20 at 7:30 pm and died 24 hours later from excessive bleeding. According to Dr Py Sopheak of the Calmette Hospital, the victim had undergone surgery to reduce her belly fat, which led to her death. Sam Rithromnea, the victim’s husband, said that his wife had paid $4,850 for the procedure.
