Purpose of the study Forensic medical assessment of antenatal infant mortality.
Materials and methods. During the study, 72 forensic medical examination reports on the establishment of antenatal fetal death were analyzed.
Results. One of the characteristic aspects of child death in the antenatal period is the development of any processes leading to fetoplacental insufficiency and the prevalence of infant hypoxia. Forensic medical assessment of antenatal infant mortality, revealing the essence of the mechanism of thanatogenesis, predicting severe complications and reducing mortality indicate the relevance of the problem. It is characterized by a clear manifestation of morphological signs of renal tissue.
Conclusions. Morphological changes in the kidney tissue of children who died in the antenatal period are directly related to premature or premature birth, as well as to the early or late neonatal period.
