Research Abstract |
We investigated medicolegal autopsy cases who died of subarachnoid hemorrhage due to ruptured cerebral artery saccular aneurysm/artery dissection from internal cause, or traumatic rupture of cerebral artery. Three dimensional Pathomorphometry was performed using serial histological cross-sections of ruptured cerebral artery. We studied below 3 points. (1)Forensic differential diagnosis between rupture from internal cause and traumatic rupture (2)Comparison between pathomorphometrical features and clinical information from cerebral artery intervention (3) pathomorphological characters of ruptured saccular aneurysm.
