The remains of a woman who worked in the south tower of the World Trade Center have been identified, more than 10 years after the attack, the medical examiner announced Friday.

Forensic scientists matched remains for Karol Ann Keasler, 42, by retesting remains recovered during the original excavation of the trade center ruins.

Keasler's identification brings the total number of trade center victims whose remains have been found to 1,633. That's out of 2,750 people killed there.

Keasler worked for Keefe, Bruyette & Woods, Inc. on the 89th floor of the south tower.
