Mrs Jane Wanza is no more after she died from complications of a breast enlargement surgery she underwent last week at a clinic in Galleria shopping mall.
The procedure was reportedly conducted by an unidentified surgeon.
The complications on the late Wanza were discovered after she visited the Nairobi Hospital on Wednesday, the doctors realised that her intestines had been cut or punctured in the first surgery, apparently a fat transfer augmentation. Her blood pressure was dangerously low.
A team of doctors led by Mr Stanley Khainga revealed that it was the surgery that must have claimed the life of Wanza.
"The wounds through which the surgery is done are the ones that now become the portals of entry of the bacteria. For her, it was an infection that was too fast. I was just intervening to control that and correct the shock and so on. I was in Nairobi Hospital when they called me. She was a referral. As a consultant, I was trying to sort out the problem," said Khainga.
Breast enlargement has been gaining popularity, with a number of women opting for the procedure as reconstruction after breast cancer surgery or for cosmetic purposes.
