Abstract

The gastric death (Sehrt) is a rare form of death in the water with heterogeneous etiology. According to the first description, the pathogeneic mechanisms can be divided into two groups: asphyxiation after aspiration of vomited gastric contents and drowning due to hyperemia during digestion. In this paper, the authors discuss the different views on the causes of gastric death and evaluate relevant post-mortem findings.
