To study the histopathological changes in drug-related death cases in order to provide valuable information for its diagnosis.
Thirty cases of drug-related death were collected for systemic autopsy and histopathology examination. Ante mortem history and other informations of each case were also reviewed and analyzed.
Injection marks, emaciation, asphyxia and histopathological changes in critical organs and tissues correlated with addiction behavior. In the 30 cases, 20% died of diseases, 33.3% acute drug intoxication, 26.7% quitting drug, 10% sudden death, and 10% outside violence.
Systemic autopsy and histopathology examination in drug-related death are useful for determination of the cause of death in these cases.
