Abstract
in English, Chinese

Commotio cordis （CC） is the acute death caused by the cardiac rhythm disorder after a sudden blunt external force to the precordium of a healthy person without previous heart disease. As one type of violent heart damage, CC is rare with relatively small external force and sudden death, therefore causing disputes. This paper reviews the epidemiology, mechanisms and the key points in forensic identification of CC, discusses the identification and antidiastole of CC, myocardial contusion, sudden cardiac death and death from inhibition, and provides assistance to forensic pathologists to identify such causes of death.

题目: 心脏震荡的法医病理学鉴定及鉴别.

摘要: 心脏震荡是指既往无心脏疾病的健康人心前区突然遭受钝性外力后，突发的心律失常所致的急性死亡。作为心脏暴力性损伤的种类之一，心脏震荡因其较为罕见，且所受外力较轻微、死亡急骤，常常引发纠纷。本文就心脏震荡的流行病学、发病机制及法医学鉴定要点进行综述，主要探讨心脏震荡与心肌挫伤、心脏性猝死及抑制死的法医病理学鉴定及鉴别要点，以期为广大法医病理学工作者对于此类死亡原因的鉴别提供帮助。.

关键词: 法医病理学；猝死，心脏；心肌挫伤；抑制死；综述.

Keywords: death from inhibition; death, sudden, cardiac; forensic pathology; myocardial contusion; review.
