October 9, 2024
Christos Pavlou, a 33-year-old man, suddenly passed away in March 2023 after experiencing chest pain and vomiting for three days. Forensic expert Nikolaos Charalambous determined that the cause of death was a heart rupture, stressing that his symptoms should have prompted a referral to a cardiologist. Instead of being referred, he was prescribed antibiotics by his doctor. The process of the rupture appeared to have started days prior to his death.
