ABSTRACT
Aspiration of amniotic fluid, whether being meconium-stained or not, can cause a respiratory distress in neonates. This disorder may result in fatal consequence including unexpected death. Fetal hypoxia stimulates fetal gasping respiration, which can provoke massive amniotic fluid aspiration. A new born male-baby was found dead on the next day after vaginal delivery, and according to the statement of care-giver there was no serious event to the baby except for poor feeding. The diagnosis of amniotic fluid aspiration was confirmed at autopsy. The authors present the autopsy findings, clinical features and courses, failing medicolegal system and medical negligence, with literature review.
