Morphometric Parameters of the Lung Tissue in Isolated Musculoskeletal Injuries under Conditions of Moderate Hyperhomocysteinemia.

The combination of inherited and acquired factors of increased thrombosis complicates establishing the cause-effect relationships between mechanical injury and death during forensic medical examination. Morphometric parameters of the lung tissue and pulmonary vessels in isolated mechanical trauma under conditions of moderate hyperhomocysteinemia were studied in an experiment on laboratory animals. A regularity in changes of the morphometry parameters of the pulmonary vessels was found. Morphometric changes in the wall of pulmonary parenchyma veins can be used as an additional marker to assess the causal relationship between isolated mechanical injury and fatal complication in the form of pulmonary embolism.
