lungs, acute bronchitis, pulmonary emphysema, hepatitis with inflated infiltrates and
proliferation of the connective tissue, atheroarteriosclerosis of nephric blood vessels.
It is worth noting that according to the postmortem examination of the body, the
deceased had undergone myocardium infraction, the information provided by the
Medical Department of the Ministry of Corrections does not contain evidence that
the convict was tested for cardiovascular diseases. Importantly, the doctor based in
Facility 17 preliminarily diagnosed the deceased with cardiac myositis which proved to
be inaccurate. It is not clear why the doctor ignored the possibility of cardiac pathology
in light of the complaints by the convict.
V.N.
Based on the documentation submitted for an examination the convict at different
times had been diagnosed with: hemorrhoid disease (IIIB stage), chronic Hepatitis
B and C, lipotoma on the back surface of the neck, recurrent bubonocele, simple
bubonocele, arterial hypertension of I degree. The patient underwent an operation.
On November 3, 2014 the patient went on a hunger strike. A doctor consulted him/
her on November 4. The doctor indicated that the pulse was rhythmical, arterial
blood pressure – 140/90. According to a medical record the patient did not have any
complaints. On November 5 the doctor found the inmate deceased. The supposed
cause of the death is thromboembolia.
According to the report N006037114 of the National Forensics Bureau, the death was
caused by acute cardiovascular insufficiency as a result of the acute ischemic damage
to cardiomyocitis.
The forensic report indicates to the following diagnosis: acute ischemic damage to
myocardium, coronary atherosclerosis, cardiosclerosis, myocardiac fibrosis, aortal and
central vascular atherosclerosis, pulmonary miliary tuberculosis, cicatrized sections
of upper left and right pulmonary lobes, alveolar emphysema, pleural fibrosis,
hepatomegaly, chronic persistent hepatitis, steatosis, adenoma of bile ducts, nephric
carcinoma, polycystocis of both kidneys, arterial and arteriosclerotic nephrosclerosis,
focal chronic arachnoiditis with fibrosis of brain tunic, purulent sections on the rectal
mucosae, a scar in the area of the anus, multiple scars on the body, a pergameneous
section in the centre of the forehead inflicted after the death, a scar in the area of the
right cheek, a dotted scar on the right side of the mouth, an extravasation in the area
of the right cheek, at the lip-nose wrinkle.
It is worth noting that according to the findings of the examination, the deceased was
additionally diagnosed with miliary pulmonary tuberculosis, adenoma of the bile ducts,
nephric carcinoma and other diseases which provides a ground to conclude that the
deceased suffered severe health conditions. However, the documentation provided
by the Medical Department of the Ministry of Corrections does not corroborate that
the convict ran through complex tests and was subject to the treatment appropriate
for these diseases.
