Relevance of studying of this pathology doesn’t raise doubts in connection with the reasons of a long invalidization of these patients, and also not typicalness in some cases of a current of brain injury, depending on localization of a trauma, time of delivery of health care, age of the patient, etc. The purpose of the research is to study the features of cerebral edema in acute severe traumatic brain injury in different age groups, and comparing clinical data forensic autopsy. The analysis of 56 sick dead in severe traumaticbrain injury consequence from 2005-2010 which were in traumatologic office of medical association of Stavropol region was carried out clinical and forensicautopsy. Patients which middle age exceeded 40 years less often perished from brain oedema probably because at patients of this age of a cell of a brain are less subject to oxygen insufficiency.

The purpose of the study was to identify medical and social characteristics of the HIV-infection and HIV-associated diseases based on the latest scientific publications in this field along with the results of our own epidemiological monitoring. In accordance with the project is implementing now by the Moscow Bureau of Forensic Medical Expertise the diagnosis of HIV infection should be verified considering the data of Moscow Center for Prevention and Control of AIDS concerning the HIV status of dead persons. During the study the correlative dynamic analysis and detailed structure research of mortality from HIV infection for the first half of 2015 have been performed based on the data of the Moscow Bureau of Forensic Medical Expertise. The quantitative indicators reflecting the forensic medical diagnosis of HIV infection as a primary (original) or associated disease with a distribution by gender, age and stage of the disease have been obtained. As a result of the study the recommendations have been developed to make a diagnosis and complete a death certificate in such cases when the HIV infection acts as an associated disease.

The analysis of morphological studies of the brain in 33 cases of acute poisoning with opiates in 20 cases of stroke at a young age with a fatal outcome. In the first group drug encephalitis was detected in 23.0% of the observed cases. Studies suggest that, along with morphological signs of encephalopathy (ischemia neuronal proliferation of ependymal cells of the ventricles of the brain, perivascular and pericellular edema, etc.) take place with the formation of neuronophagia microglial nodules at the site of nerve cells lysed. There was a special kind of encephalitis in chronic addiction — ventriculitis histologically manifested plethora subependimarnyh vessels ependymal destruction, infiltration of the ventricular wall and the vascular plexus polymorphonuclear leukocytes. In forensic practice there is a need to differentiate drugs ventriculitis with secondary changes in the ventricles of the brain, which are often accompanied by encephalopathy. When forensic histological examination identified some morphological differences opium encephalitis and focal brain lesions, including vascular origin. Also found that in chronic opiate poisoning characterized by morphological changes in the brain that are not a manifestation of sepsis and associated with primary infection of the brain and can be attached to the drug encephalopathy. Particular attention is paid to specific features, informative for determining the pathological changes of the internal elastic membrane of brain vessels. Identify options tanatogenesis encephalitis drugs, including bacterial, viral and fungal etiology, cerebrovascular disease, and demyelinating diseases.
