Evaluation of fetal and perinatal deaths in forensic medicine have difficulties.

The scene of death, sex, gestational age, explanations, registration of judicial report, histopathological and toxicological reports and judicial questions were reviewed in 119 reports. Used criteria in report for diagnosis was determinated and discussed.Downloads
