Cadaverous in a sentence as an adjective

No shortage is more like it. Intact cadaverous hearts are plentiful by comparison to awaiting heart transplant patients.

Dr Ignaz Semmelweis had this ludicrous theory, back in 1846, of “cadaverous particles” causing high deaths in women who had just given birth.

I wouldn't ever get a porcine or cadaverous tissue transplant - as someone who pays close attention and has been living with an artificial valve for decades.

Autopsies on infected cadavers were leaving germs on the doctors’ hands that would then spread to other patients, so in this particular case the elevated rate is tied to the cadavers, but it’s not cadaverous particles specifically.

Or that the awesome cadaverous smell of your hands that you took such professional pride in basically meant that your obstetric services massively decreased both mother and child's survival chances compared to no outside help at all.[Edit: I wonder if the difference can be purely explained by people being much better at figuring out what increases their and their kin's survival chances compared to those of others]
