Hospital autopsy rates are decreasing worldwide, but autopsies remain useful [1]. Most autopsies performed in Korea are forensic autopsies and the autopsy rate in Korea is very low [2]. An autopsy is recognized as the gold standard procedure for investigating death, including the determination of COD [3].

During the postmortem examination, they should evaluate whether the baby was alive or a stillbirth and determine any causes of death, such as prenatal cause, infection, anatomical abnormalities, birth or other blunt force injury, drowning, and asphyxia. We retrieved two cases of neonatal deaths in the toilets and reviewed their autopsy findings and circumstances. However, findings from the postmortem examination were insignificant. Their lung examinations revealed non-expanded alveoli, and hydrostatic tests were negative. However, the cases cannot be confirmed as stillbirths because of the possibility that they might be alive for a short period of time after birth and then exposed into the water in the toilet or to accidental or non-accidental asphyxia or that they might have died because of neglect. These cases illustrate that the death scene and the associated circumstances should be meticulously and carefully investigated.","PeriodicalId":401663,"journal":{"name":"The Korean journal of legal medicine","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122454163","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In other words, a serious complication can occur in physiologic changes that may give a rise to maternal or fetal mortality if these physiologic changes are maladjusted. Maternal mortality can be an important issue in forensic pathology as well as in public health because, if an unexpected maternal death occurs despite prenatal care having been performed, it may be embroiled in a medicolegal dispute. Acute fatty liver of pregnancy (AFLP) is a characteristic liver disease associated with pregnancy that can cause death in both mother and fetus [1]. The diagnosis of AFLP usually should be based on clinical presentation with consistent laboratory results and imaging studies. However, if the mother doesn’t show any significant symptoms related to AFLP, or if AFLP is not clinically suspicious and as a result no further evaluation are performed, the diagnosis is not easy to make. In addition, the maternal mortality of AFLP was reported as approximately 18% [1] but lethal cases of AFLP are not well known. In this case report, we illustrated a sudden death case of maternal death of AFLP and we reviewed postmortem findings with literature.

Acute symptoms of naphthalene poisoning include headaches, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and lethargy. Naphthalene poisoning typically induces prolonged hemolytic anemia and hemoglobinuria [4-6]. In literature, case reports of death following naphthalene poisoning are uncommon.
