A seriously ill girl who was at the centre of a legal dispute over her hospital care died from post-operative complications, a coroner has said.
Melody Driscoll died aged 11 at King's College Hospital (KCH) in July 2018.
Pancreatitis and perforation of the bowel due to a procedure weeks earlier at KCH also contributed to her death, Southwark Coroner's Court heard.
Coroner Dr Julian Morris said Melody had a "complicated medical history" involving two specialist hospitals.
He said Melody's Rett Syndrome - a rare and life-limiting neurological disorder - also played a part in her death.
