The Brazilian news Web site G1 reported that Tameka Foster was rushed to the Sirio-Libanes Hospital’s intensive care unit last Friday after a medical emergency that took place during a liposuction procedure.
The wife of pop star Usher had suffered cardiac and respiratory arrest as she was being anesthetized for the cosmetic surgery, according to the Web site. Foster had reportedly been put into a medically-induced coma for 24 hours and is currently recovering.
G1 reported that a U.S. neuro-surgeon from the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, Gabriel Hunt, is handling her case. He left the Sao Paulo hospital late Monday without giving comment.
Also refusing to comment are officials at the hospital. “The family has demanded total privacy. The hospital is barred from giving any information,” a spokeswoman for Sirio-Libanes told AFP.
