【Abstract】 Objective To analyze the causes of maternal death with medical disputes, the causes of medical disputes, and to recommend the related preventions through a forensic pathological angle. Methods We retrospectively analyzed 46 cases of maternal death with medical disputes which were collected by West China Center of Forensic Medicine Service in Sichuan between January 1999 and December 2008. Results Most maternal deaths occurred over 30 years old. They most frequently happened during the peri-natal period (87.0%). The causes of death included obstetric hemorrhagic shock in 21 cases (45.7%), embolism-like diseases in 8 cases (17.4%), infectious diseases in 5 cases (10.8%) and other reasons in 12 cases (26.1%). Among all the 46 cases of medical disputes, 8 (17.4%) were not due to medical malpractices, while the other 38 cases (82.6%) had something to do with such medical malpractices as delayed or inappropriate treatment, misdiagnosis and so on. Most of the malpractices in these cases involved medical institutions at a county level (54.3%). Conclusion Forensic judicatory appraisal is important to resolve medical disputes of maternal death by finding out the cause of death, clarifying the medical responsibility and clearing the cause of medical disputes.
