The Nas back at Monaldi 'Incomplete folders'

The family of a child who suffered due to a heart transplant error is preparing for a legal battle against the hospital responsible.

Patrizia and her lawyer Francesco Petruzzi are taking a stand for justice regarding the tragic case of her son Domenico, who has been in agony for 60 days following a botched heart transplant at the Monaldi Hospital in Naples. With the establishment of a foundation in Domenico's name, they aim to break the silence surrounding what they describe as cover-ups and lack of transparency in the hospital's handling of his case.

The family's focus has shifted from seeking a heart for Domenico to confronting the hospital's administration over significant delays and errors related to the transplant that took place on December 23. The realization of a critical mistake only surfaced at the end of January, bringing to light serious concerns regarding the procedures followed by the hospital staff. Patrizia's desire for accountability underscores the emotional turbulence faced by families involved in healthcare incidents.

Legal proceedings is on the horizon, as the family's efforts could lead to greater scrutiny of the medical establishment's practices. They aim to expose the truths hidden by institutional silence and ensure that their child's horrific experience is not in vain, but rather a catalyst for change in how hospitals handle such grave situations in the future.
