Аннотация

The aim of the study: Forensic evaluation of iridodiagnostic autonomous ring in the corpses of the deceased died prematurely as a result of various diseases. Materials and methods : We used iridodiagnostic methods of investigation, as well as forensic chemical, medical and forensic and forensic histological methods. The material used was the corpses of 42 persons who died suddenly from various chronic pathologies. Among the deceased males were more common, 28 of them were males and 14 females. Age category of the deceased ranged from 30 to 75 years. Results of the study showed that iris serrated form was 3.7%, retracted form - 24% and elongated form - 32% of deceased persons died suddenly of various diseases. A number of radial fissures and local 'outliers' were identified in our studies, mainly 1,2,5 and 6 forms of radial iris clefts were found. Conclusions: In forensic medical examination in determining the main cause of sudden death, iridodiagnostic methods are one of the main diagnostic methods. In our observations, there were "slackened" autonomous rings with characteristic indistinct and pigmented borders. These rings lost their typically linear appearance and turned into wide, raised above the surrounding stroma bands.
