Pink spots are sharply demarcated round to oval discolorations with a white center in the deeper areas of the formalin-fixed brain. In 152 forensic autopsies with neuropathological examinations, the authors observed pink spots in three of 16 patients with bacterial infectious diseases. Pink spots could not be found in 136 patients without bacterial infectious diseases. These results verify the concept that pink spots correlate with bacterial infections. The presence of pink spots will be used as an indication of infectious diseases in the forensic autopsy.
粉红色斑点是福尔马林固定脑的较深区域中边界清晰的圆形至椭圆形变色，中心呈白色。在152例进行神经病理学检查的法医尸检中，作者在16例细菌性传染病患者中的3例中观察到了粉红色斑点。在136例无细菌性传染病的患者中未发现粉红色斑点。这些结果证实了粉红色斑点与细菌感染相关的概念。在法医尸检中，粉红色斑点的存在将被用作传染病的一个指标。
