TY - JOUR PY - 1994// TI - Autoerotic deaths: four cases JO - Pathology A1 - Cooke, C. T. A1 - Cadden, G. A. A1 - Margolius, K. A. SP - 276 EP - 280 VL - 26 IS - 3 N2 - We describe the circumstances and post mortem medical findings of 4 unusual fatalities where death occurred during autoerotic practice. Three cases occurred in young to middle-aged men--hanging, electrocution and inhalation of a zucchini. The manner of death in each was accidental. The fourth case was an elderly man who died of ischemic heart disease, apparently whilst masturbating with a vacuum cleaner and a hair dryer.
