Woman Dies After Reportedly Injecting Vaseline Into Her Breasts.

39 year old athlete injected vaseline into her breats in an attempt to get a home-made boob-job. As one might suppose, that led to complications. The woman was admitted into hospital after developing trouble breathing: as the product got into her blood stream, it generated clots that led to her death as a reuslt of pulmonary embolia after a month in hospital.

"In all my medical career, I've never seen a case like this(...)" Julio Pla Cardenas, chief of surgery at Lucio Molas Hospital in Santa Rosa said, according to Sipse.com

I first saw this on huffpost via twitter,

I next checked the local newspaper for the news, and here it is in Spanish.
