A question from a subscriber. Can the bodies be delivered to the morgue with fly larvae. How does the autopsy work in this case?Yes, of course. In forensic medicine, this is a common phenomenon. Flies can lay eggs in natural holes as early as 2-3 hours after a person's death. Usually flies lay eggs where there is moisture, it can be the mouth, nose, corners of the eyes, skin folds.
When examining the body, the larvae are removed and then everything happens as usual. Separately, you can examine the larvae to determine the approximate date of death. The section that deals with this is called forensic entomology.
