Hemorrhagic Lividity of the Neck: Controlled Induction of Postmortem Hypostatic Hemorrhages
American Journal of Forensic Medicine and Pathology, 11/25/09
Pollanen MS et al. – This research implies that hypostatic hemorrhages form after the progressive development of increasing gravitational hydrostatic pressure in an autolysing venous plexus. Thus, this phenomenon can mimic soft tissue injury (pseudo–bruising) and the internal injuries related to strangulation. Caution must be exercised when diagnosing strangulation in bodies with anterior neck lividity.
