Abstract
During the past 15 years, increasing numbers of pathologists have adopted the practice of holding postautopsy conferences for families. This type of small meeting is held to inform the relatives of the deceased of the cause of death and its meaning. These postautopsy conferences are easy to organize and conduct, and they are not time consuming. However, they are deeply appreciated by families and sometimes make a significant difference in their lives.
