Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the death was causally linked to the 1988 accident so as to justify survivors' benefits under accident insurance.
Extrahierter Entscheid
The natural causal link was not shown with the degree of probability required; the accident and splenectomy were not deemed a likely cause of the sepsis and death.
Extrahierte Begründung
The medical reports were found convincing and consistent; the sepsis followed a major cancer surgery and hospital-related infection risk, and the record did not justify further expert evidence.
