Biography

Ivo Hélcio Jardim de Campos Pitanguy (July 5, 1926 – August 6, 2016) was a plastic surgeon based in Rio de Janeiro. Pitanguy studied at the Bethesda North Hospital in Cincinnati, where he worked with John Longacre. Soon after, Pitanguy went to France and England where he studied plastic surgery. In 1953 he began working at a Brazilian hospital. On December 17, 1961, a burning circus tent fell on 2,500 spectators in the Brazilian city of Niterói. Pitanguy treated burn victims for weeks on an emergency basis. He later referred to the event as life changing, as it taught him that for many, physical appearance was critical to living. He died one day after carrying the Olympic flame in his wheelchair, ahead of the Rio 2016 Olympic games. Notable patients: Pitanguy treated well-known patients, such as the former F1 race driver Niki Lauda, the former prime minister of Italy and media tycoon Silvio Berlusconi as well as the revolutionary Muammar Gaddafi.
