GONZALEZ, Jessica <br />ORANGE COUNTY SHERIFF-CORONER <br />AUTOPSY REPORT <br />13-02615-BB <br />Page 12 <br />Cut sections of the cerebral hemispheres reveal an intact, uniform cortical ribbon. <br />The basal ganglia, thalami, hippocampi, and other internal structures are <br />symmetrical without focal changes. The white matter is uniform and <br />unremarkable. The ventricles are not dilated, and the linings are smooth and <br />glistening. Cut sections of brainstem, midbrain, and cerebellum show intact <br />structures without focal lesions. <br />The spinal cord is excised from the cervical to lumbar region . There is a <br />moderate to marked amount of distal thoracic and lumbosacral surrounding <br />spinal cord hemorrhage (epidural, subdural, and subarachnoid hemorrhages). <br />Within this area of the lumbar spinal cord are traumatic injuries with pulpifaction <br />and hemorrhage of the lumbar spinal cord. The remaining length of the spinal <br />cord is free of significant evidence of injury. <br />6/27/2013 bl (13547) ~ <br />Etoi M. Davenport, M.D., Forensic Pathologist
