“…The results of our study using computed tomography to investigate drowning cases confirm the presence of fluid in sinuses and trachea, which is in accordance with literature findings [3,6,9,11,18]. None of the control cases had fluid in the paranasal sinuses or trachea, which can be explained by the fact that in hanging victims there is no exposure to water.…”

“…Previous studies on post-mortem computed tomography imaging were conducted on groups ranging from 6 to 39 drowning subjects [1,6]. In maxillary and sphenoidal sinuses, fluid was present in up to 100% of the drowning cases, in the frontal sinus in 70% to 100% and 80% to 100% had ethmoidal fluid [3,11].…”

“…Zatoki klinowe i szczękowe W jednym z badań, obejmującym 39 przypadków utonięcia [9], test obecności płynu w zatokach klinowych lub szczękowych w obrazie TK cechował się czułością na poziomie 97%, specyficznością 35%, PPV -34%, NPV -98%. Wyniki porównania obecności płynu w zatokach klinowych lub szczękowych metodą TK u osób zmarłych wskutek utonięcia oraz z innych przyczyn były statystycznie istotne (p < 0,0001).…”

“…One study of 39 drowning cases [9] showed that the presence of fluid in sphenoidal or maxillary sinuses on CT had a sensitivity of 97%, a specificity of 35%, a positive predictive value of 34%, and a negative predictive value of 98%. Results comparing the presence of fluid in sphenoidal or maxillary sinuses on CT in drowning and non-drowning victims were statistically significant with a p value < 0.0001.…”
