What is red-purple parenchyma with pulmonary edema as a cause of death? |
[Edit] |
Red-purple: a color both reddish and purple
Parenchyma: the essential elements of an organ, used in anatomical nomenclature as a general term to designate the functional elements of an organ, as distinguished from its framework or stroma.
Pulmonary: related to the blood vessels to and from the heart (more to do with the lungs)
Edema: swelling, usually associated with an infection.
So, basically, it seems that it's some sort of lung swelling, accompanied with a discoloration, that's so bad it kills you.
