It is believed Melissa Kerr was not fully informed of the dangers of the procedure
Melissa Kerr, 31, travelled to a private hospital in Istanbul for the procedure, according to Norfolk's senior coroner Jacqueline Lake. However, she was only given 'limited information regarding the risks and mortality rate' associated.
In a string of WhatsApp messages between Ms Kerr and a hospital worker before the Briton travelled to Turkey, Ms Kerr arranged to pay £3,200 in cash. She asked four times to see photographs of previous patients but there is no evidence they were provided.Ms Lake said: "Ms Kerr underwent a limited assessment prior to the procedures. Ms Kerr was provided with limited information regarding the risks and mortality rate associated with this procedure.
She added: "There has been the release of an international alert to surgeons regarding the high mortality rate associated with this procedure. There has also been the introduction of a voluntary moratorium on this type of procedure in the UK.
