CASE HISTORY

These specimens are removed from the body of a young man aged 32 who took his own life (coal-gas poisoning). He was an unhappy man, apparently of no occupation, and had made previous attempts on his life (barbiturates, slashing of wrists).

PATHOLOGY

The specimen consist of aorta and main branches stained with Sudan III in order to show the extent of fatty infiltration in a young and apparently physically healthy male.
