Abstract

Planned complex suicide constitutes a very rare mode of suicide. They are highly likely to be mistaken for murder. We report a case of a 22-year-old female that was brought dead to RIMS mortuary after being reported dead at her home, An Autopsy conducted showed a ligature mark which was suggestive of hanging. Greenish-colored fluid in the stomach with wall congestion at places with erosions and bleeding suggestive of Copper Sulphate poisoning (paint ingestion). An in-utero dead fetus was also found when the enlarged uterus was thoroughly examined. Suicides and suicide attempts are a big public health problem that have progressed in the last two decades and are ever increasing since then. Planned complex suicides, therefore indicate the mental dropout of individuals and social failure. Role of depression hovering around people nowadays cannot be denied. When people die committing such suicide, surviving family is left with shock, anger, grief, symptoms of depression and anxiety and may even experience thoughts of suicide themselves.
一名怀孕女性复杂自杀的病例报告
有计划的复合自杀是一种非常罕见的自杀方式。它们极有可能被误认为是谋杀。我们报告了一例 22 岁女性在家中死亡后被送往 RIMS 停尸房的病例,尸检显示有勒痕,提示为上吊自杀。胃内有绿色液体,胃壁有多处充血、糜烂和出血,提示硫酸铜中毒(摄入油漆)。在对增大的子宫进行彻底检查时,还发现了一个胎死腹中的胎儿。自杀和自杀未遂是一个严重的公共卫生问题,在过去的二十年里,这一问题得到了进一步的发展,而且自那时以来还在不断增加。因此,有计划的复杂自杀表明了个人的精神出轨和社会失败。如今,抑郁症在人们身边徘徊,其作用不可否认。当人们死于此类自杀时,幸存的家人会感到震惊、愤怒、悲伤、抑郁和焦虑症状,甚至自己也会产生自杀的念头。
