The death of a South Florida teen "may" be linked to complications from plastic surgery.

18-year-old Stephanie Kuleba died Saturday after what appears to
be a reaction to anesthesia.

Doctors told her family they believe the popular cheerleader from West Boca Raton High had a genetic marker linked to malignant hyperthermia.

The condition, triggered by anesthesia, can raise a person's body temperature to dangerous levels, among other things.

Her shocked friends are now dealing with the loss of a beloved classmate who hoped to study medicine at the University of Florida.

Kuleba's augmentation surgery was intended to correct a pre-existing problem with her breasts, which were uneven.

According to an attorney hired by her family, the only purpose of implants was to make her breasts the same size and shape.
