Hospital Alemán Reports Christian Petersen Stable After Transfer to Buenos Aires

He was moved for higher-complexity care after more than a week in intensive care in Patagonia.

Overview

  • The chef arrived Friday by medical aircraft under continuous monitoring in a transfer the hospital said proceeded without complications.
  • The first official bulletin states he was received stable, assessed by an interdisciplinary team, and had his treatment adjusted while future updates will respect medical confidentiality.
  • He had been hospitalized over 10 days in Neuquén with atrial fibrillation that progressed to multiorgan failure, requiring intensive care and mechanical ventilation before a reported progressive improvement.
  • The emergency began on December 12 during a Lanín volcano expedition when the guide detected severe fatigue and unusual behavior, prompting a rescue coordinated with park rangers and later Gendarmería.
  • Relatives describe a steady recovery and ask for privacy as follow-up studies continue at the Buenos Aires facility.
