At the beginning of January 2023, the skater was hospitalized after New Year’s performances at the outdoor show.

The athlete was transported to a hospital in Kommunarka, resuscitated and connected to an artificial blood oxygen saturation device (ECMO), after which he remained on a ventilator for a long time.
Complications caused by the disease led to the development of gangrene, for which doctors had to perform a series of amputation surgeries: the skater lost both legs, the hand of one hand and the fingers of the other hand. On July 6, Kostomarov was discharged from the hospital in Kommunarka, where he spent 175 days.
