A woman who refused to eat for the first decade of her life choked on her own vomit, an inquest heard.
Tia-Mae McCarthy, 21, baffled doctors as a child with her refusal to eat, surviving on tube feeds until she was a teenager.
Her case drew national attention and was the subject of a 2006 TV documentary, The Girl Who Never Ate, which followed her mother Sue's search for answers.
The 21-year-old from Fordingbridge, Hampshire, was born 12 weeks premature and weighing just 2lb 3oz, spent much of her first year in hospital.
She was diagnosed with oesophageal atresia, a rare condition where the foodpipe does not connect to the stomach.
