Abstract Background The prognosis of patients admitted for acute aortic dissection (AAD) has remarkably improved. However, we must also consider out-of-hospital cardiopulmonary arrest (OHCPA) patients while assessing the prognosis. In recent years, autopsy imaging has become more common as an alternative to conventional autopsy. Therefore, we reviewed our OHCPA patients with type A AAD using acute phase non-contrast computed tomography (CT). Case summary Here, we report a case series of three patients who developed OHCPA and were diagnosed with type A AAD using non-contrast CT. Although the direct causes of death varied in each case, we could easily determine the direct causes of death from clinical course of the condition and from non-contrast CT. Discussion Although non-contrast CT does not completely replace autopsy, if its convenience and non-invasiveness make it possible for more patients to undergo the procedure, the real prognosis (including morbidity and mortality) may be better understood. Therefore, we considered it significant to use non-contrast CT for investigating the cause of sudden death.

Unexpected Findings

Abstract Background: Anorexia nervosa not only results in severe malnutrition but also carries a high risk of sudden death. Although fatal arrhythmias are the most common cause of sudden death, it is often unclear what exactly causes them. To the best of our knowledge, there have been no reports of cerebral herniations in patients with anorexia nervosa.Case presentation: A 17-year-old adolescent girl with neuropathy and autism spectrum disorder was admitted to the pediatric ward for extreme weight loss. Eight hours after admission, she suddenly went into cardiopulmonary arrest and died despite resuscitation. A postmortem autopsy revealed the unexpected findings of generalized severe cerebral edema and cerebellar tonsillar herniation.Conclusion: Intracranial hypertension may need to be considered when the condition of patients with anorexia nervosa suddenly worsens during refeeding periods. Postmortem autopsy and autopsy imaging are recommended to determine the exact cause of sudden death.
