葡萄牙“無臉嬰兒”出生，產科醫生被停職國際頭條網

產檢數次都沒有發現孕婦懷的是個畸形兒……

當地時間10月7日，在距離葡萄牙里斯本40公里的塞圖巴爾，一傢俬人診所內一名產婦生下的一個男嬰驚呆了在場的眾人。

這個名叫羅德里戈（Rodrigo）的男嬰患有嚴重的先天畸形，他沒有眼睛、鼻子以及部分頭蓋骨，是個無臉嬰兒。而他的母親生產前接受多次產檢都未被告知這一嚴重問題。

葡萄牙醫療委員會當地時間週二一致投票決定，負責該名產婦的產科醫生阿圖爾•卡瓦略（Artur Carvalho）停職6個月。而這名醫生可謂“劣跡斑斑”，另外6項針對他的投訴可以追溯到2013年。

Dr Artur Carvalho reportedly performed three mandatory ultrasounds on the mother of the boy known as Rodrigo at a private clinic. He did not report any concerns.

據報道，阿圖爾•卡瓦略醫生在一傢俬人診所為名叫羅德里戈的男孩的母親進行了三次強制超聲波檢查。他沒有報告任何問題。

However, his mother then had a more detailed 5D ultrasound at a different clinic when she was six months pregnant.

不過，當他母親懷孕6個月時，她在另一家診所接受了更為詳細的5D超聲波檢查。

Medics there raised possibility of abnormalities, but Rodrigo’s aunt said he dismissed their concerns.

那裡的醫護人員提出了畸形的可能性，但羅德里戈的阿姨說，卡瓦略消除了他們的顧慮。

“He explained that sometimes some parts of the face are not visible (on ultrasounds)... when the baby’s face is glued to the belly of the mother,” Rodrigo’s aunt told a local broadcaster.

“他解釋說，有時候（通過超聲波）臉部有些地方是看不見的……當嬰兒的臉貼在母親的肚子上時，”羅德里戈的阿姨告訴當地電視臺。

畸形嬰兒的父母投訴後，這個嬰兒成為了新聞頭條，葡萄牙醫療委員會隨即展開了調查。

"There is strong evidence" of the doctor's negligence, which "may lead to a disciplinary sanction", Alexandre Valentim Lourenco, medical council chief for the southern region told broadcaster RTP.

負責南部地區的醫療委員會主任亞歷山大·瓦倫丁·洛倫科告訴RTP電視臺，“有強有力的證據”表明醫生翫忽職守，“可能會導致紀律處分”。

Given the impact of this case, which "has repercussions on the reputation of doctors" and "to reassure pregnant women", he said the suspension was necessary to evaluate the complaints.

考慮到這一案件的影響力，它“影響了醫生的聲譽”，以及為了“讓孕婦安心”，他說停職是必要的，以評估投訴。

當卡瓦略醫生正在接受調查時，這個家庭正在為他們孩子不可避免的死亡做準備。

Rodrigo’s parents were told he would only survive a few hours because of his abnormalities, but more than two weeks on, he is still alive under care at Sao Bernardo Hospital in Setubal.

羅德里戈的父母被告知，由於畸形，他只能活幾個小時，但兩個多星期過去了，羅德里戈仍在塞圖巴爾的Sao Bernardo醫院接受治療。

On Facebook, David shared a photo of himself passing the adorned bub into his doting mother's arms with a strategically placed baby emoji over little Rodrigo’s face. He captioned the touching image with a crown and love heart emoji, proving just how devastating a situation their family is in.

在臉書上，（羅德里戈的父親）大衛分享了一張自己的照片，照片中他把這個可愛的小傢伙交到他媽媽懷裡，並在小羅德里戈的臉上巧妙地貼了一個嬰兒表情符號。他給這幅感人的照片配上了王冠和愛心的表情，證明了他們的家庭是多麼的不幸。

Friends and family have drowned the photo with love and support, telling the parents to “stay strong”.

照片下面充滿了朋友和家人的愛和支持，告訴父母要“堅強”。
