Excerpt

According to the recommendations of the Council of Europe from 1999, a medico-legal autopsy should be practiced for any sudden unexpected death [1]. Sudden cardiac deaths (SCD), especially among young people, fall into this category. In most European countries, forensic pathologists perform autopsies on SCD victims. Nowadays, the role of forensic pathology even has enhanced substantially due to dramatic decrease of the rate of medical autopsies over the last decades, while the rate of forensic autopsies remains stable [2]. …
