Font size

Letter of "formal notice" for the Monaldi hospital in Naples where on 27 March 2023 a little girl who had undergone a heart transplant in 2021 died, the same one that was treating little Domenico Caliendo.

According to what two consultants from the family (defended by the lawyer Francesco Petruzzi), doctors Luca Scognamiglio and Vincenzo Iovinella, claim, the little girl, who was two years and three months old when she died, was the victim of a poorly treated nosocomial infection.

In the medical-legal and infectious disease consultancy, the two consultants identify responsibilities in the treatment and describe terminal biological and moral damage.

The little girl's case is the first taken on by the Domenico Caliendo Foundation, of which the lawyer Petruzzi is vice president. In 2023, two more children died, also brought to the attention of the Foundation which remembers the child who died last February due to a failed heart transplant performed on 23 December 2025.

"We are waiting to know - comments the lawyer Petruzzi - who are the three deaths to which one of the doctors involved in the investigation into Domenico's failed transplant refers in a WhatsApp message acquired by the Naples Prosecutor's Office".

Maneuver: Gimbe, '22.7 billion in invisible cuts to healthcare from 2022'

According to the Gimbe Foundation, in the last five years the National Health Service has suffered an invisible cut of 22.7 billion euros due to the reduction of the National Health Fund in relation to GDP, which fell from 6.27% in 2022 to 6.11% expected for 2027. The Regions in 2025 recorded a deficit of 2.3 billion, while family health spending reached 42.4 billion and 5.6 million people they give up healthcare services.
