A woman died after being embalmed alive due to a medical blunder in a Russian hospital, her mother claims.
Ekaterina Fedyaeva’s mother accused medics of putting her daughter on a formalin drip, which includes formaldehyde, instead of saline.
The 27-year-old had been in hospital in Ulyanovsk for routine surgery but after being given the wrong drip suffered pains and convulsions for two days before falling into a coma.
Despite being flown to a top Moscow hospital she died of multiple organ failure.
Her mother Galina Baryshnikova said: ‘Her legs were moving, she had convulsions, her whole body was shaking.

‘I put socks on her, then a robe, then a blanket but she was shivering to such an extent, I can’t even describe it. No doctor came to see her although she was coming round from anaesthetic.’
The drip contained formaldehyde which is meant for corpses for embalming.
Mrs Baryshnikova added: ‘Now I understand that formalin was simply eroding her body from inside. People who performed the surgery already knew that they infused something wrong.
‘They needed to take some urgent measures – but they did nothing.’
Ekaterina was buried on April 7 and a criminal investigation has been launched into her death.
