Abstract

GARRO DONINI, Alessio. Alteraciones del sodio como causa de muerte en Patología Forense. Med. leg. Costa Rica [online]. 2017, vol.34, n.1, pp.279-286. ISSN 2215-5287.

Sodium alterations are a primary or aggravating factor that could cause death in both well-known and wellknown people, as well as those that present some type of pathology, either acute or chronic. These alterations in many occasions could go unnoticed, given their great complexity of detection, treatment and sometimes clinical management. These factors make these alterations an axis of clinical medicine often forgotten by experts in charge of performing clinical autopsies as well as those in which it deprives some interest of a legal medical nature

Keywords : hyponatremia; hypernatremia; death; dehydration; Pontine myelinosis.
