Introduction-In Forensic histopathology electrocution injury is an challenging condition as in various cases there is no gross finding seen and surrounding evidence is are not very much supportive. Aim- To study histopathological changes in heart due to electrocution injury. Methods and materials: In the present study, a total of 16 heart specimens due to electrocution deaths and 16 normal heart specimens are considered during the study period of 4 year from 2017 to 2020. Case details are obtained from the records and analyzed. The histopathological findings are recorded by us. Results: Myofibre break-up, separation of sarcomeres and extravasation of RBCs are found in all the 15 cases of electrocution (100%). The other findings are disarray of the myofibres (87%), hyper contracted myocyte with squaring of nuclei (73%), myocellular segmentation (33%) and myocyte vacuolization (20%). Conclusion- Most of the histopathological changes in heart are found consistently in electrocution cases compared to that of the normal hearts for better understanding of electrocution effect.
