Abstract:
A fatal case of electrocution occurring during autoerotic practice is described. A plausible reconstruction of the accident involves attachment of one electrode to the anus and accidental touching of the other electrode with hand and chest when attempting to attach it to the penis. Death was caused by myocardial fibrillation. Both cable and pornographic literature were obviously hidden by the parents of the deceased to conceal the actual cause of death. The accident is compared to cases found in the literature.
