Abstract

A handful of histopathological findings unrelated to the cause of death are noticed in routine histopathological examination of medicolegal autopsies. These findings which are of practically no significance to the autopsy report however have an immense academic value. A two year retrospective study was undertaken to enlist the various incidental microscopic findings in autopsy specimens. The interesting findings that were noted are Macronodular cirrhosis, Miliary tuberculosis, Aspergillosis of lung, focal von Meyenberg complex, Solitary cyst of liver, Intra tubular germ cell neoplasia (ITGCN), Ectocervical cavernous hemangioma and vegetations over the aortic valves. This article highlights these incidental findings along with a brief review of literature.

Key words: Incidental, Histopathological, Medicolegal autopsies.
