    (2006) Beyaztas, Fatma Yucel; Butun, Celal; Dokgoz, Halis; Altun, Gurcan; Yorulmaz, Coskun; Polat, Oguz
    Aims: The evaluation of sexually abused children is a part of forensic medicine practice. Such assaults may result in the death of the victim due to different causes. Aim of this study was to present the childhood deaths determined as associated with sexual abuse according to smear results, genital and postmortem examinations, to determine the groups under the risk, and to contribute to the identification of the offenders. Methods: 17 cases of sexual child abuse with lethal outcome in the State Institute of Forensic Medicine in Istanbul, Turkey have been investigated in a five years' period from 1996 to 2000. Results: Most of the victims were female. In terms of cause of death, five cases were evaluated as general body trauma, three as gun shot, three as hanging, four as fatal pressure on the neck, one as strangulation with tie, one as narcotic intoxication. Conclusion: Such cases are very rare so that epidemiological conclusions concerning escalating violence of the youth cannot be drawn. However, sexual abuse of child resulting in death is the most severe form of an attack against the physical and psychological integrity of a still growing individual and its prevention requires a multidisciplinary approach, vigilance and the community's enhanced sensitivity to this topic. Death associated with sexual abuse is also dealt in this study. © Universitätsverlag Ulm GmbH 2006.

In this study, the childhood deaths were evaluated with respect to age, sex, causes of deaths and the origins. The records of the autopsies performed in the Council of Forensic Medicine in Turkey between the years 1997-2001 were reviewed. 1,568 of 14,467 deaths were found to be in the childhood age range of 0-18. 1047 (66.8%) of those children were male of gender and 521 (33.2%) were female. The commonly encountered origins of childhood deaths were sudden-unexpected causes in early childhood, accidents in the playing age, homicide and suicide in the adolescents. Among all the deaths, 571 cases (36.4%) were seen in the age group of 0-6 years. Accidents account for 619 cases (39.3%), blunt traumas (156 cases) present the most common cause of deaths. In order to prevent childhood deaths, preventive and curative health services should be strengthened, providing training programs for parents, and should be a concern of the government bodies and civil society.

    (ALLIED ACAD, 2017) Butun, Celal; Beyaztas, Fatma Yucel; Yildirim, Ali; Ozer, Erdal; Can, Muhammet; Uzun, Ayla; Yilmaz, Riza; Dokgoz, Halis
    Introduction: In cases of infant deaths that have the legal nature, there are problems in determining the causes of death. Post-mortem assessments in this age group require the more different approaches than adults for both autopsy techniques and examinations. Aim: By examining the infant death cases, it was aimed to draw attention to the points to be considered in the autopsy cases and the causes of death which can be reduced. Method: The forensic autopsies of 44 cases at the age of 0-1 y been undergone between 2008-2015 y in Cumhuriyet University Medical Faculty Hospital morgue were included in our study. Age, gender, medical records, crime scene characteristics, autopsy and laboratory findings of these cases were discussed in the light of the literature. Result: Sixteen of the 44 cases were male and 26 were female. Sex discrimination of two cases could not be done due to severe putrefaction. When evaluated according to age groups, the largest group (27.3%) was composed of cases between 2-6 months of age. When the causes of death determined in the reports were examined, natural causes of deaths detected at the majority of cases (45.5%). Conclusion: Consequently, assessment of infant deaths requires an elaborate autopsy, careful crime scene investigation and detailed medical information of the infant and his/her family.
