Romanian doctors used heart implants from the deceased

The Romanian authorities are investigating a network of doctors who are said to have carried out heart operations that were not medically necessary and implanted implants in patients that had previously been removed from corpses. According to the public prosecutor’s office, a suspect was taken into custody on Saturday evening. The cardiologist at a hospital in Iasi used a total of 238 medical implants “of unknown origin” between 2017 and 2022, the investigators said.
