ABSTRACT
The advancement of studies about the molecular biology and electronic physiology on sudden cardiac death was summarized in this article, including particularly cardiac concussion(commotio cordis), congenital long QT syndrome, and Brugada syndrome which probably resulting in fatal arrhythmia and sudden cardiac death. These corpses of fatal functional disorders often show the results of negative autopsy without obvious organic pathological changes. So when come across negative autopsy the medical examiner and the pathologist should be careful to investigate the inductive cause of sudden death, the history of disease, and the family history, then to rule out the possibility of the above disorders.
