A business woman lost liposuction to lose weight and became a vegetable. She died after 10 years in a coma. The surgeon was arrested for medical malpractice.

  In August 2008, Zhang Jinhua, a businessman who had just returned from Hungary, fell on the operating table of Wang Liangfa, the chief surgeon of the "Minghuihong International Medical Beauty Clinic" (hereinafter referred to as "Minghuihong Beauty Clinic") in Beijing. Damage to become a vegetable.

On October 6, 2018, ten years after being in a coma, Zhang Jinhua finally died of ischemic hypoxic encephalopathy.

  For 12 years, Zhang Jinhua’s husband, Wang Huankai, has been hoping to hold the responsible party responsible for criminal responsibility, but to no avail.

On December 27, 2020, the reporter learned from Wang Huankai that the chief surgeon Wang Liangfa had been approved for arrest on the crime of medical malpractice in September this year.

The People's Court of Chaoyang District of Beijing confirmed to reporters that the court has formally accepted the case and will set a date for trial.

Business woman was fooled by "severe obesity"

  Before the accident, Zhang Jinhua was a businessman. She and her husband Wang Huankai lived in Hungary and worked hard in a foreign country for many years. “It was quite successful, and the family had nothing to worry about.” In July 2008, Zhang Jinhua returned to China.

Soon, Zhang Jinhua went to Minghuihong Beauty Clinic for consultation.

Height 170cm, weight 61.6kg... Zhang Jinhua, who is not fat in the eyes of ordinary people, in the "Body Composition Analysis Report" issued by Minghuihong Beauty Clinic at that time, the percentage of body fat was "obesity" and the ratio of waist and hip fat was "severe" obesity".

Therefore, under the advice of the “experts” of the clinic, Zhang Jinhua agreed to the operation: no-marking and firming, hyaluronic acid, liposuction (8 parts in a waist and abdomen)...

  At 7pm on August 4, 2008, Zhang Jinhua came to Minghuihong Beauty Clinic again, and after paying more than 120,000 yuan, he walked into the operating room alone under the clinic’s “no family accompany” regulations to start various treatments During the operation, the surgeon Wang Liangfa performed liposuction and other operations at 11 o'clock in the evening.

However, an accident happened during the operation: Zhang Jinhua fell into a coma.

Since then, he has been in a vegetative state.

  After a judicial appraisal by the Beijing Huaxia Material Evidence Appraisal Center, the total amount of swelling fluid used in the operation of Minghuihong Beauty Clinic was about 4000ml, the total dose of lidocaine hydrochloride reached 2.4g, and the total dose of epinephrine hydrochloride reached 4mg. "Excessive use ".

The appraisal agency believes that Minghuihong Beauty Clinic is at fault with Zhang Jinhua’s diagnosis and treatment behavior, and there is a direct causal relationship with the damage consequences. The fault participation rate is 100%. Zhang Jinhua currently constitutes a first-degree disability and complete care dependence.

  At the end of December 2009, the Chaoyang District Health Bureau of Beijing issued an "Administrative Penalty Decision" numbered "Chaowei Medical Punishment (2009) No. 828", affirming that Beijing Minghuihong International Medical Beauty Clinic does not have anesthesia qualifications , So his "Medical Institution Occupation License" was revoked and a fine of 3,000 yuan was imposed.

The following year, the Chaoyang District Health Bureau of Beijing issued two more "Administrative Punishment Decisions", and the "Physician Practice Certificate" of the chief surgeon Wang Liangfa and anesthesiologist Yu Qiguang was revoked.

The chief surgeon was approved for arrest

  Faced with the punishment results of the Chaoyang District Health Bureau in Beijing, Zhang Jinhua’s husband Wang Huankai believes that Wang Liangfa’s suspected medical malpractice crimes “must be held criminally responsible.” And Wang Huankai also told reporters that Wang Liangfa’s “Physician’s Practice Certificate” was revoked and it was published in major universities. The website advertised their professional skills and performed cosmetic surgery publicly. “We have twice reported Wang Liangfa’s “illegal medical practice” behavior to the then District Health Bureau in written form.”

  In 2014, Wang Huankai party filed a civil lawsuit.

The People’s Court of Chaoyang District of Beijing once commissioned a third-party appraisal agency, Beijing Tongda Shoucheng Judicial Appraisal Institute, to make another appraisal. The results are consistent with the conclusion of the Huaxia Material Evidence Appraisal Center: Zhang Jinhua’s damage consequences and the doctor’s medical behavior are directly causal, and the doctor (name Huihong Beauty Clinic) should take full responsibility.

  Although the clinic and related doctors were punished, Wang Huankai believes that in this incident, the responsible party has caused deliberate injury, so he rushed to pursue the criminal responsibility of the other party and withdrew the civil lawsuit that year.

Zhang Jinhua’s former lawyer told reporters that in 2015, under the supervision of the procuratorate, the Beijing Chaoyang District Health and Family Planning Commission transferred the case to the public security organs. “The police filed a criminal case in January 2016. In November 2016, the chief surgeon Wang Liangfa was arrested. Criminal detention, but when the public security organ reported to the procuratorate for arrest, it was not approved. Therefore, Wang Liangfa was released on bail pending trial."

  On October 6, 2018, Zhang Jinhua, who was in a coma for 10 years, was finally declared dead due to hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy.

In order to ask his wife for an explanation, Wang Huankai kept reporting the matter to the relevant departments.

After a long wait, the matter finally made new progress recently.

  "The chief surgeon Wang Liangfa was finally approved to be arrested in September this year on charges of medical malpractice." On December 27, 2020, Wang Huankai told reporters that the Chaoyang District People’s Court of Beijing contacted him not long ago, saying that the case will be around next year. Court hearings can be held in January, "At that time, we will file criminal and civil claims. In addition to demanding compensation, we also hope that the court will impose severe penalties in accordance with the law."

  On December 28, a staff member of the People’s Court of Chaoyang District in Beijing confirmed to reporters that the court had accepted the case and that “there is no specific date for the hearing yet.”
