Forensic medical assessment of fractures’ morphological criteria for determination of the mechanisms of tibial shaft destruction in case of fall from height. Forensic Medical Expertise. 2025;(4):43-47

Abstract:

The interpretation of symptoms of multiple injuries caused by fall from height in case of postmortem examination with the aim to establish facts of causing traumas is onerous, especially in diagnosing mechanisms of various injury formations. The objective of the study was to elaborate expert diagnostic criteria to determine mechanisms of fractures of long tubular bones caused by fall from height on the basis of the analysis of fracture morphology and information technologies. The prognostic models have been developed, which make it possible to prognosticate mechanisms of fractures basing on the elaborated expert diagnostic criteria of fractures of long tubular bones in case of catatrauma. The morphologic criteria of fractures with the use of linear regression analysis make it possible to distinguish reliably different variants of the body landing and height of fall ranges.
