In Russia, an acupuncture doctor left fragments of needles in a patient's body

In Krasnoyarsk (Russian Federation), a woman sought medical attention complaining of acute pain in her leg and an inability to walk normally after attending an acupuncture session.

An X-ray examination revealed at least 10 needle fragments in the soft tissues of her leg, which a quack had left behind during the procedure

The patient is currently undergoing a course of antibiotic therapy and anti-inflammatory treatment. If medication proves ineffective, she will require complex surgery to remove the small metal fragments.

At the Centre MCO Côte d’Opale private clinic in Saint-Martin-Boulogne (France), a surgeon, due to a mix-up with another patient, removed all four wisdom teeth from a 17-year-old girl instead of performing the scheduled ankle surgery

In Uzhhorod, a 12-year-old girl tragically died after being hospitalized following a visit to a private dental clinic.
