RESUMO

This review article highlights the crucial role of organ weights and dimensions as key indicators in forensic diagnosis. Organ weight changes serve as valuable markers for pathological conditions, aiding forensic doctors in interpreting autopsy findings. The review emphasizes the importance of precision in establish- ing organ reference values, considering factors like population-specific norms and correlations with body parameters. Furthermore, it explores the impact of obesity on organ weights, emphasizing the need for updated databases that accurately reflect diverse populations. The article underscores the inadequacy of relying on outdated sources and advocates for creating a comprehensive and updated database of organ weights and dimensions for the local population, essential for accurate forensic interpretations.

RESUMO

This review delves into the forensic utility of the sternum in creating a biological profile, focusing on sex, stature, and age estimation. Emphasizing the sternum's significance in challenging scenarios, the study supports the combined length of the manubrium and sternal body as a crucial indicator in sex and stature estimation. However, it highlights the need for caution in applying findings across diverse populations and questions the reliability of Hyrtl's law. Age estimation, primarily based on morphological changes and ossification ages, is explored, with one study showing promise but requiring further validation. While acknowledging the sternum's advantages, the review underscores potential limitations and the absence of specific studies on ancestry estimation, leaving this aspect open for future research. In conclusion, the review provides a comprehensive overview of the sternum's forensic applications, urging continued research to enhance accuracy and applicability.

RESUMO

A complex suicide defines a combination of multiple suicidal methods the victim successively or concurrently carries out. We present a case of a 72-year old man found dead on the railtrack, seemingly committing simple train-related suicide. Flobert revolver - a small caliber handgun was found nearby. Herein, we emphasize the significance of a thorough external examination, stress the fact that victim can act after low-energy projectile trauma and match our case to a similar complex suicide.

RESUMO

Authors Poprad, since the establishment of the Department of Forensic Medicine in Poprad in 1991 up to now. As mountainous environment is considered an area above the border of Tatranská magistrálna (a tourist footpath which leads across the High Tatras and partially Western Tatras). The file discusses the causes and mechanisms of death and their causal relationships, shows the nationality, age, gender or place of death of deceased people, amounts of deaths in the months of year and also in the days of week. Some results are shown in the graphs, the percentage results are described in a text. Valuable and complete results were reached only in cases with describe statistically a group of people who died in the mountainous environment of the High and Belianske Tatras for the last 25 years and who were dissected on the Department of Forensic Medicine in complete documentation (and also after autopsy, not every case of death was autopsied). At the same time, the authors describe the system of cooperation between the Department of Forensic medicine and Pathological Anatomy of Health care surveillance Poprad with Mountain rescue components and the Police force of Slovak Republic, operating in the territory of the High and Belianske Tatras. These components help us to gain information about the case, which are not usually known during the first inspection of dead body in a mortuary or at the moment of an autopsy (hikers and climbers are often alone in the mountains, so their accidents are without witnesses).
