[Postmortem findings in peritonitis (author's transl)].

About 11 000 autopsies were done in Darmstadt from 1955 to 1977; 879 (8%) of the cases had had peritonitis. The incidence of acute peritonitis was highest (56,8%), followed by acute local peritonitis (26,6%), peritoneal abscess and covered perforation (11,4%) and strangulation ileus (3,8%). Peritonitis had been the cause of death in 56%; in 37% of the cases peritonitis was an essential finding, in 6,3% a minor finding. A comparison was made with statistics of peritonitis at postmortem in Berlin in 1908; total incidence of peritonitis was about the same, however peritonitis originating from appendicitis or female genital tract infection is much rarer - peritonitis originating from the biliary tract or from the intestinal tract is much more common nowadays. Morphological changes occurring during septic shock are described as well as the chronic sequels of peritonitis. Finally some special forms of peritonitis are discussed: Foreign body peritonitis, tuberculous peritonitis, peritoneal metastases, retroperitoneal fibrosis and peritonitis of the newborn.

The technique of death masks making.

In taking death-masks two different techniques are used. In the technique using a plaster matrix the plaster mash is brought on the face. When the plaster-cast has dried it is filled with plaster mash. Later the matrix is removed in order to lay open the mask. In the technique using a plastic matrix the plastic powder Palgat is brought on the face after mixing it rapidly with icewater until it appears pappy. After that a layer of several centimeters of plaster mash follows in order to stabilize the delicate plastic matrix. Likewise the matrix is filled with plaster mash. The mask can be furnished with a collar and a fixation and the surface can be prepared. The skin relief of the face is reproduced finer using the cast of a plastic matrix.
