Microcephaly as observed in the late 19th century cemetery of the Meerenberg psychiatric hospital
Microcephaly, characterized by crania with an abnormally small occipitofrontal circumference (OFC), is only sporadically described in paleopathological literature. Accurate identification of individuals suffering from microcephaly is challenging when performed in an archeological context, especially in mild cases, as appropriate reference data are often not available. This study aimed to describe the craniometric characteristics of the Meerenberg…
The histopathological spectrum of myocardial inflammation in relation to circumstance of death
Interpreting a myocardial inflammation as causal, contributory or as of no significance at all in the cause of death can be challenging, especially in cases where other pathologic and/or medico-legal findings are also present. To further evaluate the significance of myocardial inflammation as a cause of death we performed a retrospective cohort study of forensic and clinical autopsy cases. We revised the spectrum of histological inflammatory para…
An Investigation of Micro-CT Analysis of Bone as a New Diagnostic Method for Paleopathological Cases of Osteomalacia
Disaster victim identification operations with fragmented, burnt, or commingled remains
Human-made and natural disasters can result in severely fragmented, compromised, and commingled human remains. The related disaster victim identification (DVI) operations are invariably challenging, with the state of the remains potentially precluding some identifications. Practitioners involved in these DVI operations will routinely face logistical, practical, and ethical challenges. This review provides information and guidance derived from fir…
The role of forensic anthropology in disaster victim identification (DVI)
Forensic anthropological knowledge has been used in disaster victim identification (DVI) for over a century, but over the past decades, there have been a number of disaster events which have seen an increasing role for the forensic anthropologist. The experiences gained from some of the latest DVI operations have provided valuable lessons that have had an effect on the role and perceived value of the forensic anthropologist as part of the team ma…
Four possible cases of osteomalacia
Dry bone histology of bone tumours
This article focuses on the application of dry bone histology in the diagnosis of a series of different bone tumours. It provides a short introduction on bone tumour classification and how tumours may affect the skeleton. To illustrate the value of dry bone histology in the diagnostic process we studied the 'fresh' and 'dry' bone histology of a series of well-documented, recent clinical cases of various benign and malignant bone tumours. We show …
Assessing Post-traumatic Time Interval in Human Dry Bone
The post-traumatic status of antemortem fractures in human dry bone remains is currently defined as being either 'healing' or 'healed'. However, detailed 'dating' of the related post-traumatic time interval would be desirable, since it would aid in assessing individual medical status and care at the time of death. Within forensic pathology practice, fresh tissue healing phases are routinely used as an intrinsic parameter for the length of the pos…
Manual for the Preparation and Staining of Embedded Natural Dry Bone Tissue Sections for Microscopy
In the last decade, the use of light microscopy has been firmly established for the investigation of exhumated human bone tissue. As a rule, these remains cannot be decalcified; thus, they are most commonly prepared for microscopic analysis as ground thin sections. These ground sections are of great value in diagnosing disease, in estimating age or in assessing taphonomic alteration. As bone is sometimes fragile and can be damaged by the grinding…
Scurvy as a factor in the loss of the 1845 Franklin expedition to the Arctic
In 1845, an expedition, commanded by Sir John Franklin, set out to discover the Northwest Passage. The ships entered the Canadian Arctic, and from September 1846 were beset in ice off King William Island. A note left by the expedition in May 1847 reported all was well, but by April 1848, 24 of the 129 men had died. The ice-locked ships were deserted in April 1848, but the 105 survivors were so weakened that all perished before they could reach sa…
Staining ground sections of natural dry bone tissue for microscopy
The histological staining of bone tissue is of great value in identifying structural changes in human bone tissue when examined microscopically, and is therefore routinely used by clinical pathologists. However, for archaeological and other types of undecalcified dry bone tissue, histochemical staining is currently not widely used. The purpose of this paper is to describe a new method developed for the staining of undecalcified archaeological bon…
