title: [Postmortem transport of gastric contents?].
abstract: For the determination of the time since death, the distribution of the last meal in the stomach and small bowel may be of great importance. It may be even more difficult to estimate the time if there is a possibility that postmortem peristaltic emptying of the gastric content occurs, as has been claimed. Radiological control immediately after death by means of applying barium sulfate to the stomach, however, revealed no evidence of peristaltic emptying of the gastric content after death.
