Résumé
Twelve cases died during the process of venous infusion were collected from 208 autopsy cases during the period of 2002-2004 in our center. The rate was 5.8% (12/208). In these 12 cases, 8 occurred in countryside clinic with poor medical condition. Negligence to take care of the indications and contraindications of venous infusion was the main cause of these accidents. Autopsy data showed that the cause of sudden death of 9 cases were related to the venous infusion directly or indirectly. The other 3 cases were died from original diseases of these patients and the time of these deaths was time of coincidence occasionally with the time of venous infusion.

Three cases of newborn emphysema were reported. Parenchymatous emphysema, interstitial emphysema and bullous emphysema were all found in the three cases. One of the three cases showed accumulation of air in interstitial tissue. The air penetrated into septa of the lung at the beginning, then it probably split the hilus pulmonis to reach mediastinum as well as subcutaneous tissues of the chest, neck, abdomen, inguinal region and scrotum. The oxygen inhalation under pressure during first-aid may be the cause of the newborn emphysema.
