In this work, 20 anorecetive intercourse [ARI] cases of both sexes, referred to Cairo Medicolegal Department, ministry of Justice, were examined. They were compared with 10 healthy non-anorecetive subjects. Regarding the characteristics of the studied cases, 30% of males were married compared to 60% of females. Anal penetration was complete in all married cases [males and females], while it was 70% and 60% in unmarried ARI males and females respectively. There were no signs of violence in all married cases as they were cooperative with the other partner. Regarding local examination, in 80% of married female cases the anus was deeply seated compared to 70% in married males. In unmarried female cases, 670% had deeply seated anus compared to 80% form males. Funnel shaped anus was detected in 70% of ARI married female cases and 60% of ARI married male cases. It was 40% in ARI unmarried females and 80% in ARI unmarried males. The analysis of needle electromyography [EMG] mapping of the external anal sphincter of ARI subjects revealed weakness, which ranged from mild to marked at localized sites and sometimes there was generalized weakness at all sites compared to the control healthy cases

This work gives light on the ocular changes in the early postmortem period. These changes included the intraocular pressure [I.O.P], fundus and electrolytes in the vitreous humour. Fifty corpses with an accurately known time of death were examined in Al-Zahraa University Hospital. The corpses were divided according to the cause of death into pathology group and trauma group. In the pathology group, there was a slow gradual decline in the I.O.P, while in the trauma group, a rapid sharp decrease in the I.O.P was recorded. Fundus examination 30 minutes after death showed a markedly pale optic disc. After one hour, all the retina and the macula became pale and oedematous. Two hours after death, there was a rise in the vitreous potassium, while sodium, chlorides and calcium showed a slight reduction in their vitreous concentrations. It is suggested that, evaluation of the postmortem changes of I.O.P, fundus and electrolyte concentrations in the vitreous humour may be of great value in determining the time of death
