[Fatal hemorrhage from an isolated scalp injury].
By means of 3 casuistics it is illustrated, that fatal bleeding from a single scalp injury can occur under special preconditions. Beside signs of massive loss of blood at the place of discovery and on the corpse, particularly chronic and acute alcohol intoxication with presumably impaired coagulation and prospective anemic history play a dominant role in these courses.
