Abstract
The purpose of this work is to evalute the effectiveness of the unselected hospital autopsy to provide useful, practical medical information which is not available by other means. The information in the study is compared to other series and an evaluation is made as to the economy of the autopsy as an instrument of quality control of medical care and in potential malpractice avoidance.Keywords
