Forensic autopsies of infants in İzmir: 1999-2007

Abstract

Aim: Among the forensic autopsies in Izmir, a total of 378 infantile (0-12 months) term deaths were researched. We aimed to draw attention to remarkable points and preventable causes of deaths for this term mortalities. Material and Methods: Between 1999 and 2007, 378 infantile term deaths were examined in terms of gender, age (in terms of months), the cause, the origin and the year of death, the distribution of deaths according to seasons, specialties of the doctors who performed death examination, and the results of pathological and toxicological researches. Data were computerized after codification and evaluated with SPSS. Results: 220 of 378 cases were male and 155 of 378 cases were female. Data about 3 of 378 cases' gender were unrecorded. 186 of the cases were perinatal term deaths, 32 of them were neonatal term deaths and 160 of them were post neonatal term deaths. Asphyxia – anoxia (25.1%) were deemed to be the most causative factor of death, infections (21.2%) were second. Among the deaths due to asphyxia – anoxia; intrauterine anoxia (29.5%) was first and foreign body aspiration (24.2%) was second. As for infections, lung infections (85.0%) were first. Conclusion: This study carries importance since it indicates infant deaths for the Izmir region, however, autopsies were not performed for all of the infant deaths in Izmir district. In the end, with our restricted number of cases we can say that infant deaths can be lessened by being more careful about foreign body aspirations, infections and traumas which are preventable causes of death.
