ABSTRACT
Over one year, 7 autopsy cases with narrow diameters of the descending aorta were seen in the Institute of Forensic Medicine at the University of Bonn. The autopsy results were supplemented by chemical-toxicological, alcohol and histological examinations. In all cases middle-aged men (24-38 years) died suddenly and predominantly in a domestic environment. To some extent the inner aortic diameters ranged significantly below the expected values in relation to body surfaces or were lower than the 5th percentile related to men aged 45 years. In four cases, potentially lethal concentrations of alcohol or intoxications, e.g. with heroin, were noted. In one case, the blood sugar level was significantly elevated. In the other two cases, all further investigations were unremarkable.
