Tragedy struck Brazil on Monday as former Miss Brazil Gleycy Correia died at just 27 years old as a result of complications from a routine tonsil removal surgery.
Ms Correia, who hailed from the southeastern city of Macaé, suffered both a haemorrhage and heart attack before falling into a coma in early April, just five days after the routine surgery. Her body has been sent to a medical examiner for an autopsy.
