Sections show no significant abnormalities.
KIDNEYS:
Sections show no significant abnormalities aside from dilatation and engorgement of blood vessels of all calibers.
SKIN WOUNDS:
Sections through the wounds in the occipital and upper right posterior thoracic regions are essentially similar. In each there is loss of continuity of the epidermis with coagulation necrosis of the tissues at the wound margins. The scalp wound exhibits several small fragments of bone at its margins in the subcutaneous tissue.
FINAL SUMMARY:
This supplementary report covers in more detail the extensive degree of cerebral trauma in this case. However neither this portion of the examination nor the microscopic examinations alter the previously submitted report or add significant details to the cause of death.
