Pata Villanueva Hospitalized in ICU at Hospital Alemán

The hospital confirmed her intensive care admission while withholding a diagnosis, leaving family reassurances about a urinary infection unverified.

Overview

  • Villanueva was admitted to a Buenos Aires clinic the night of Monday, May 25, and Hospital Alemán says she is in the institution’s Intensive Care Unit under strict clinical control.
  • The hospital’s single official bulletin confirmed the ICU stay and said it will preserve medical secrecy, but it did not give a cause or detailed diagnosis.
  • Family members, including her daughter Agustina and ex-husband Alberto Tarantini, have described her as stable and out of danger and told reporters the episode was linked to a urinary infection.
  • Those family statements and a close-source claim to Teleshow that she was hospitalized mostly for observation have not been confirmed by the hospital’s medical release.
  • The current alarm is heightened by Villanueva’s 2021 skull fracture and long rehabilitation after a fall in Punta del Este, which makes any new ICU admission especially sensitive for her care and recovery.
