[Ultrastructural morphology of acute alcoholic intoxication].

Histologic and electron-microscopic examination of the liver, heart, kidneys, lungs of 32 individuals who died from acute alcoholic intoxication (alcoholemia from 2,9 to 7,2 0/00) and 16 people who died suddenly from a trauma being in the state of a severe alcoholic intoxication. Material was taken for the examination within 3 hours after death. The ultrastructural alterations detected in the organs reflect a deep metabolic disturbances resulting from an acute or chronic alcoholic intoxication. The relation of morphological changes with an age and an alcohol abuse duration is discussed.
