Mariana Bridi da Costa died as a result of the severe infections she was suffering from (after being misdiagnosed with kidney stones). By the time she was correctly diagnosed with a urinary tract infection, she was already suffering from septicemia, which was the reason for her feet and hands being amputated (due to restriction of blood flow to these areas). Additionally, she also had her stomach removed due to internal bleeding. She eventually succumbed to the damage caused by these severe infections.
