Answer

There are many variables that will affect the time the body will remain preserved. Typically a few years will see the body decomposed to skeletal remains. Those buried underground will last longer then those in above ground crypts. Placed in a controlled environment, a body can be preserved for decades, particularly if the embalming is 'refreshed' on a regular basis, such as Lenin's body in Moscow.
