Taphonomical appearance after long immersion in water, with adipocere changes. (Left image) Coronal maximum intensity projection (MIP) reconstruction of the right lower limb. (Middle image) Axial slice. Multiple spontaneous cutaneous and subcutaneous hyperdense areas can be seen because of adipocere changes. Gaseous dissection within the muscular tissues is also visible. (Right image) MIP reconstruction of the right lower limb, with disarticulation of the ankle because of taphonomical processes.
