abstract="Analysis of 24 autopsy cases ordered by insurances and performed at the Institute of Legal Medicine, Johannes Gutenberg University, Mainz (FRG), in the years from 1985 to 1991 revealed that even if there was a long period of time between accident and death (average: 20.3 years; maximum: 55 years) and in cases of exhumation necropsy was a useful tool in checking the relative's claim to insurance premium. Nevertheless post mortem examination should be performed as soon as possible to ensure evident pathomorphological findings and to avoid unjustified waiting periods with economical problems (e. g. case report: 78 years old widow couldn't pay electricity and call charge; she had a right to a pension due to an accident of her husband 55 years before, proved by exhumation 2 1/2 months after death.<p /> <p>Language: de</p>",
