The article presents the case of the death of a premature and immature newborn infant, who was placed in the refrigerator freezer after birth. To determine the thanatogenesis of the infant’s death, medical documents and case materials were studied, which made it possible to determine the development of pathological processes that led to the death of the newborn, defects in the primary examination of the corpse and shortcomings in the histological examination, limiting judgments about the circumstances of the infant’s death.
