Although it has been shown in numerous studies that the autopsy and the postmortem histopathological examination are the only ones that can diagnose correctly and completely, the autopsy rate is declining. The primary motive of the family in consenting to a perinatal necropsy, may be to determine the cause of death of their child and to be aware of possible complications of their future pregnancy. This study shows the rate of concordance between clinical diagnosis and autopsy diagnosis, and the rate of concordance between macroscopic diagnosis and microscopic findings, pointing out once again the importance and the utility of the autopsy in medical practice.

The autopsy is viewed more and more as an ultimate branch of medicine and used only in extreme cases or for forensic purposes. Nevertheless, many studies, including this one, prove the utility and indispensability of the autopsies, without which a complete and accurate diagnosis cannot be made. Finally, the autopsy followed by histopathological examination of the tissues remains the ultimate and most important step for the apprehension of the diseases and for further evolution of medicine. This study reveals the correspondence rate between the clinical and the postmortem diagnosis, as well as between macroscopic and histopathological diagnosis.

A review from the literature is also mentioned.We present a case of metastatic malignant melanoma in the femur with known primary site in a 44-year-old-female. Diagnosis was confirmed by histopathology.Malignant melanoma is a cancer that may metastasise in the skeleton. However most of bone metastases are found in the axial skeleton and they rarely involve the femur, as in our case. Only a few case reports are published in the literature. Clinicians must be aware of the varied clinical manifestations of disseminated malignant melanoma.The diagnosis for metastatic malignant melanoma is confirmed due to pathological examination. Immunohistochemical study is useful in diagnosis, mainly when malignant melanoma is poorly differen-tiated.
