The Serbian health ministry announced that a thorough inspection found no procedural or technical errors during the adenotonsillectomy of four-year-old Eme from Čaçka. While officials stated there were "no omissions" in treating the girl, they confirmed significant medical mistakes occurred when another male patient died following surgery at the same facility on March 18th. This investigation into two separate deaths has resulted in a clear distinction between proper care for one child and negligence leading to fatality with his companion's case.
