Resumen

La estenosis subaórtica, aunque patología infrecuente, es susceptible de cursar con muerte súbita por un mecanismo arritmogénico. Si bien su etiología no está aún aclarada, dado el presumible componente genético subyacente, el examen autópsico se convierte en instrumento esencial para el diagnóstico posmortem y trasmitir el pertinente consejo médico a los familiares. Se presenta el estudio médico forense de una mujer de 39 años, que fallece de forma súbita a causa de esta etiología, se discuten los principales hallazgos y los antecedentes familiares conocidos.

Abstract

Subaortic stenosis, although an infrequent pathology, is prone to cause a sudden death through an arrhythmogenic mechanism. Although its aetiology is still unclear, and given an assumed underlying genetic component, the autopsy becomes an essential tool for post-mortem diagnosis of the disease and to give relevant medical advice to family members. A case of sudden death of a 39 year-old woman involving this aetiology is presented, and the medico-legal findings, as well as a discussion on the known family's medical background.

Keywords:
