We reviewed autopsy and detailed cardiac pathologic findings in younger women (age 35-44 years) from a 270-patient, 13-year (1984-1996) autopsy series of sudden cardiac death, and performed comparisons with findings in age-matched men.

N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide is associated with sudden cardiac death risk: the Cardiovascular Health Study. Given the dynamic and multifactorial nature of sudden cardiac death, comprehensive population-based investigations are likely to be necessary to further investigate this unexpected sex-based disparity.

Sudden unexplained deaths (SUD) are those where no cause is found after detailed premorbid history and a complete autopsy with macroscopic, histological and toxicology assessment.

Autopsy examination is the mainstay of diagnosis in cases of sudden death and can exclude non‐cardiac causes of death, such as pulmonary embolism, aortic dissection and intracranial haemorrhage.

Optimal care of SCD families therefore requires dedicated and appropriately trained staff in the setting of a specialized multidisciplinary cardiac genetic clinic.

NIH While coronary artery disease and acute myocardial infarction are the most common causes of SCD in older populations, genetic (inherited) cardiac disorders comprise a substantial proportion of SCD cases aged 40 years and less.
