| Summary: | We present is a case of a young 23-year-old woman found in her home in a comatose state, who
was taken to the nearest medical center and died there despite the emergency resuscitation measures.
The autopsy revealed a characteristic bluish discoloration of the gastric and necrotic changes in the
duodenal mucosa. The conducted toxic-chemical studies proved that this was a case of copper sulfate
poisoning. This was confirmed by the subsequent inspection at the home of the deceased, where a suicide
note was found, written by the deceased, where in addition to the reasons for her decision, she specified
the way - intake of copper sulfate. |
