The article analyses the losses in Afghanistan during the whole 10-year period of war, making classification by years, number and character of autopsies which were performed by specialists of the pathologicoanatomic laboratory in 1980-1988. Errors in pre-hospital care resulted in 10% of all fatal cases. The quota of the first aid defects was 10.6% of all pre-hospital errors.
