Resumo: | The classical authors of Brazilian Forensic Medicine provide a solid basis for the study of cadaver decomposition. Their writings show that decomposition is subdivided in stages that occur in specific periods, which may overlap or have their course altered by factors ranging from the environment in which the corpse was found to its physique and comorbidities in life. With the specific objective of learning how to overcome these difficulties during investigations and necropsies, a literature review of scientific articles in the PubMed, Scielo and Scopus databases was carried out using the terms Putrefied, Cadaveric Putrefaction, Diagnosis and causa mortis. This resulted in ten articles on human corpses, published in English from 2000 to 2019. The literature showed that methods already known to researchers (namely, imaging equipment, histopathology, and chemical analysis of body fluids) can alter the deductions made prior to their use. However, despite all the assistance they offer, they do not replace the keen eye of a well-trained forensic team. On the contrary, they must work together. This reinforces the certainty that the necropsy of a putrefied corpse is indispensable. |

Por meio da leitura de seus livros, notou-se que a marcha da decomposição é composta de fases ocorridas em períodos específicos, que podem se sobrepor ou ter seus rumos alterados por fatores que vão, desde o ambiente em que o cadáver se encontra, até sua compleição física e comorbidades em vida. Com o objetivo específico de aprender como contornar tais dificuldades durante as investigações e necropsias destes casos, foi realizado levantamento bibliográfico de artigos científicos nas bases PubMed, Scielo e Scopus, pelos unitermos Putrefied, Cadaveric Putrefaction, Diagnosis e Causa Mortis, que resultou em dez artigos em língua inglesa, publicados de 2000 a 2019, a respeito de cadáveres de seres humanos. Foi possível depreender que métodos já conhecidos pelos pesquisadores (a saber: equipamentos de imagem, histopatologia, e análises químicas de fluidos corporais), são capazes de alterar deduções feitas antes de seu uso. Entretanto, apesar de todo o auxílio que oferecem, não substituem o olhar atento de uma equipe forense bem treinada. Ao contrário, devem caminhar juntos, reforçando ainda mais a certeza de que a necropsia de um cadáver em decomposição é indispensável de ser realizada.Universidade de São Paulo.
