The coroner passed on her condolences to Mrs Savage's family.

Mother-of-two Janet Lynne Savage from Bangor in Gwynedd suffered damage to one of her main arteries during the procedure, going into cardiac arrest.

The inquest was told Mrs Savage had contacted a health travel firm called Regenesis Health Travel at the start of July 2023, and within 24 hours had signed up for surgery a month later in Turkey.

According to the NHS, the index measures what is a healthy weight for your height, and would have put Mrs Savage at the very start of the obese range, which runs from 30 to 30.9.

The coroner said she ordered a post-mortem examination when the body of Mrs Savage was repatriated to Wales, which was carried out at Glan Clwyd Hospital.
