当地时间10月7日，在距离葡萄牙里斯本40公里的塞图巴尔，一家私人诊所内一名产妇生下的一个男婴惊呆了在场的众人。

这个名叫罗德里戈（Rodrigo）的男婴患有严重的先天畸形，他没有眼睛、鼻子以及部分头盖骨，是个无脸婴儿。而他的母亲生产前接受多次产检都未被告知这一严重问题。
葡萄牙医疗委员会当地时间周二一致投票决定，负责该名产妇的产科医生阿图尔•卡瓦略（Artur Carvalho）停职6个月。而这名医生可谓“劣迹斑斑”，另外6项针对他的投诉可以追溯到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.
据报道，阿图尔•卡瓦略医生在一家私人诊所为名叫罗德里戈的男孩的母亲进行了三次强制超声波检查。他没有报告任何问题。
However, his mother then had a more detailed 5D ultrasound at a different clinic when she was six months pregnant.
不过，当他母亲怀孕6个月时，她在另一家诊所接受了更为详细的5D超声波检查。
Medics there raised possibility of abnormalities, but Rodrigo’s aunt said he dismissed their concerns.
那里的医护人员提出了畸形的可能性，但罗德里戈的阿姨说，卡瓦略消除了他们的顾虑。
“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.
“他解释说，有时候（通过超声波）脸部有些地方是看不见的……当婴儿的脸贴在母亲的肚子上时，”罗德里戈的阿姨告诉当地电视台。

畸形婴儿的父母投诉后，这个婴儿成为了新闻头条，葡萄牙医疗委员会随即展开了调查。
"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.
负责南部地区的医疗委员会主任亚历山大·瓦伦丁·洛伦科告诉RTP电视台，“有强有力的证据”表明医生玩忽职守，“可能会导致纪律处分”。
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.
考虑到这一案件的影响力，它“影响了医生的声誉”，以及为了“让孕妇安心”，他说停职是必要的，以评估投诉。

当卡瓦略医生正在接受调查时，这个家庭正在为他们孩子不可避免的死亡做准备。
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.
罗德里戈的父母被告知，由于畸形，他只能活几个小时，但两个多星期过去了，罗德里戈仍在塞图巴尔的Sao Bernardo医院接受治疗。
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.
在脸书上，（罗德里戈的父亲）大卫分享了一张自己的照片，照片中他把这个可爱的小家伙交到他妈妈怀里，并在小罗德里戈的脸上巧妙地贴了一个婴儿表情符号。他给这幅感人的照片配上了王冠和爱心的表情，证明了他们的家庭是多么的不幸。
Friends and family have drowned the photo with love and support, telling the parents to “stay strong”.
照片下面充满了朋友和家人的爱和支持，告诉父母要“坚强”。
