The postmortem room is a source of potential hazards and risks, not only to the pathologist and anatomical pathology technician, but also to visitors to the mortuary and those handling the body after necropsy. Postmortem staff have a legal responsibility to make themselves aware of, and to minimise, these dangers. This review focuses specifically on those hazards and risks associated with the necropsy of infected patients, with foreign objects present in the body, and with bodies that have been contaminated by chemicals or radioactive sources.
尸检室不仅对病理学家和解剖病理技术员,而且对停尸房的访客以及尸检后处理尸体的人员来说,都是潜在危害和风险的来源。尸检工作人员有法律责任了解并尽量减少这些危险。本综述特别关注与感染患者尸检、体内有异物以及被化学物质或放射源污染的尸体相关的那些危害和风险。
