Post-mortem/Dissection Photos With Info Part 2
Part one here: http://www.documentingreality.com/fo...s-info-113407/ Death And Murder Victims With Info This man received at least seven incised wounds to the neck prior to being struck in the head with a brick: Postmortem incised wounds of the genitalia and breasts: Pugilistic attitude of burnt body: Homicidal strangulation: House fire victim: Suicidal decapitation by train: Suicidal ingestion of lysol: No matter how badly damaged a body, a blood specimen can usually be obtained. The redness of the tissues in this case suggests the person died of carbon monoxide poisoning: Head injuries/deaths: The scalp and skull were normal. The brain weighed 1400g and appeared swollen. The membranes displayed purulent exudate, particularly prominent along the inner surface - look carefully at the picture (on the left) and you can see a creamy-white covering in places. The Circle of Willis showed mild atheromatous changes. As mentioned, a lumbar puncture taken while the patient was alive showed large numbers of Haemophillus sp. in the cerebro-spinal fluid.: Brain with Cocci meningitis: Subdural clot http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subdural_hematoma: Fresh subdural haematoma displaced to one side as dura removed: Spinocerebellar ataxia type 6 autopsy photographs On the top is the brain of an 82-year-old patient with a diagnosis of spincocerebellar ataxia, type 6 (SCA6). On the bottom is the brain of a 96-year-old “control” patient with Alzheimer disease: Note comparative diminution of the cerebellum in the SCA6 patient. SCA6 is one several autosomal dominant cerebellar ataxias. SCA6 results from a CAG trinucleotide repeat expansion in the CACNA1A gene on chromosome 19p. The brain after the skull has been removed. Both a subdural haemorrhage and contrecoup contusions were present. The second photo is a close - up of the haemorrhage. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subdural_hematoma Autopsy Randoms: |

Re: Post-mortem/Dissection Photos With Info Part 2
I worked in group homes with developmentally disabled adults. Due to a desperate situation, we took in a woman who was more mentally ill than developmentally disabled. She enjoyed the attention she got from hospital staff, so she sneaked Pine Sol away to her room when staff wasn't looking. Then she drank it. Yummy! Fortunately, she drank so little of it, she didn't do herself any harm. But it showed, VERY quickly, how poorly trained staff was for dealing with the mentally ill (many of us told management over and over we couldn't deal with her). Needless to say, they found her another placement quickly. |
