title: [WHO basic classification in forensic medicine].
abstract: The internationally used WHO-basic tabulation list of causes of diseases and death is presented in a modified version for forensic medicine. The findings of postmortems are to be indexed with this code and put into a database. We would like to suggest that as many institutes as possible use this code and collaborate to discuss further modifications.
