jQuery – Trigger event when an element is removed from the DOM

I’m trying to figure out how to execute some js code when an element is removed from the page:

jQuery('#some-element').remove(); // remove some element from the page
/* need to figure out how to independently detect the above happened */

is there an event tailored for that, something like:

jQuery('#some-element').onremoval( function() {
    // do post-mortem stuff here
});
