(ANSA) - ROME, NOV 14 - The position of two doctors facing manslaughter charges following the death of 22-year-old patient Margaret Spada after rhinoplasty at their medical centre in Rome could worsen as a probe into the procedures used before and during surgery continues, investigative sources said Thursday.
    An autopsy on Spada's body will be performed on Friday at the Tor Vergata Hospital in the Italian capital to determine the cause of death and whether doctors followed all procedures and guidelines for this type of surgery.
    The State attorney's office in Rome also wants to determine whether the health clinic was appropriately equipped.
    The father and son were placed under investigation after Spada, a 22-year-old from Siracusa, died on November 7 following the operation.
    The pair are the owners of the medical centre in Rome where the young woman fell sick right after being administered local anaesthesia.
    Spada died four days later at the San Eugenio Hospital where she had been taken in critical condition.
    Police did not find any document or medical chart regarding the surgery at the private clinic, which did not have any nameplate or sign outside, investigative sources said.
    Spada had reportedly found the centre through an ad on social media. (ANSA).
