Portuguese obstetrician Arturo Carvalho removed from office due to the fact that he did not inform future parents about the deformation of the face of their baby.

A newborn named Rodrigo was born on October 7 in a hospital in Setubal near Lisbon. Dr. Arthur Carvalho carefully monitored the patient’s pregnancy, three ultrasound procedures were carried out, but he never informed the woman about problems with the fetus.

Future parents had some suspicions, but the doctor claimed that the baby’s face was simply pressed against the wall of the mother’s abdomen.

As a result, the child was born with a serious deformation of the face - he did not have a nose, eyes and part of the skull.

For parents, a happy event was a tragedy and a shock, because they did not even suspect that they could have such a baby. In addition, doctors also said that the baby will not live even a week. However, the boy is still alive, now he is nursing in the clinic. And Carvalho himself was fired on charges of negligence, writes the British publication Independent.
