Says Never Seen Anything Like This Once the thrombosis was discovered, Canepa was transferred to San Martino Hospital in Genova where surgeon Alessandro dAndrea diagnosed the issue.
Speaking to Italian media Il Piccolo, Gianluigi Zona, the director of the neurological and neuro-traumatological clinic of the San Martino hospital, described being baffled by the severe thrombosis seen in images of Canepas brain.
I am not a virologist or an epidemiologist or a coroner but, in the face of the picture I saw in that girls head, it is clear that we are dealing with something not normal, Zona described. Look sharp by wearing exclusive gear found only at our store.
We opted for a decompression craniotomy, the skull opened to relieve internal pressure, Zona said.
However, according to the doctors, the brain would not drain and instead soaked up blood, something Zona said hed never witnessed before.
All the venous sinuses were blocked by thrombus, a scenario that I had never seen in many years of this profession.
You have to imagine the venous sinus as the river in the center of a valley in which several streams converge, Zona described. If a dam is built at the center of the watercourse, the river swells and at that point the tributaries are unable to discharge, with the result that the upstream pressure rises.
Canepas parents claim Camilla had no disease prior to the vaccine as an investigation has been launched into the bizarre death.
Canepas death as well as that of several others prompted Italian health officials to halt distribution of the AstraZeneca to people under 60 last month.
AstraZeneca will only be used for people over 60, stated Italy COVID commissioner Francesco Figliuolo.
The risk-benefit assessment has changed.
