Çiğdem Bulut, a beauty specialist working in Iraq, recently came to Adana for the mourning of a relative. She was diagnosed with a hiatal hernia by a doctor after experiencing stomach issues. Bulut wanted to undergo surgery for treatment. On August 15, she agreed with General Surgery Specialist Opr. Dr. B.G. for the surgery. Bulut was taken into surgery at a private hospital on August 18 and was discharged on August 20. Concerned about Bulut's condition, which began to show symptoms of vomiting after the surgery, her relatives reported the situation to the doctor who performed the operation. Her relatives claimed that the doctor told them, "It's psychological, it has nothing to do with my surgery." As Bulut's condition worsened, she was brought back to the hospital where she had the surgery on August 25. Here, Bulut's condition deteriorated further, and she was placed in the intensive care unit and intubated. That same day, she was transferred to Seyhan State Hospital. It was claimed that internal organ damage occurred after the hiatal hernia surgery, and she underwent another surgery there, but she passed away around 6:30 PM on August 27.
THEY FILED A COMPLAINT ABOUT THE DOCTOR AND HOSPITAL After Bulut's death, her grieving relatives came to the private hospital where the hiatal hernia surgery was performed to express their anger towards the doctor and hospital management. Following their complaint about the doctor and hospital, Bulut's lifeless body was taken to the morgue of the Adana Forensic Medicine Institution for an autopsy.
"SHE WENT FOR A SIMPLE SURGERY, HER FUNERAL CAME" Barış Tumur (35), Çiğdem Bulut's stepbrother, explained that everything happened within 10 days, stating that she went to the surgery singing happily. Barış Tumur claimed that the doctor ignored her post-operative complaints, saying, "Since she was discharged from the hospital, it could be psychological, and he suggested taking her to a psychologist. Her condition worsened, she was saying, 'My back hurts, I can't breathe, the stitches are hurting badly inside, help me.' I took her to the hospital, and no intervention was made until the evening. They just gave her 5-6 IV fluids and painkillers. No X-ray was taken, no tests were done until midnight. At 2:00 AM, she collapsed while going to the bathroom, sweating cold. It was determined that her pulse had dropped to 5. Later, her heart stopped, and they tried to revive her for 15 minutes, after which she was taken to intensive care. She was then transferred to Seyhan State Hospital. We received the news of her death that evening. A person who went in for a simple hiatal hernia surgery is now coming back in a coffin. We want the authorities to take action," he said.
"DOCTORS GAVE A 2% CHANCE" After Bulut was transferred to Seyhan State Hospital, her stepbrother Mehmet Tumur (45) reported that the doctors there informed them that her diaphragm had ruptured due to the hiatal hernia surgery, and that there was rotting in her stomach, a tear in her intestines, and collapse in her lungs. The doctors explained that her chance of survival was 2%, and that her stomach had been removed during the surgery. "We received the news of her death the day after the surgery," he said.
ONLY VIDEOS TAKEN ON THE DAY OF SURGERY REMAIN Çiğdem Bulut, who passed away at the age of 33, left behind videos taken on the day of her surgery. In a video taken while she was going to the hospital for surgery, Bulut was seen cheerfully singing. In another video, she was seen smiling at the camera while being wheeled to the operating room.
IT WILL BE REVEALED IN THE AUTOPSY The police have launched an investigation regarding Bulut's death. Whether there was a wrong surgery or negligence in Bulut's death will be determined by the autopsy results.
