title: [Forensic medical reconstruction of the mechanism of subdural hematoma development following multiple head injury].
abstract: This paper presents results of 103 observations of subdural hematomas (SH) resulting from the injury to extradural segments of cerebral veins. A craniocerebral trauma was shown to effect the frequency of development and localization of subdural hemorrhage. Individual head tissues exhibited different degree of resistance to mechanical injury. This observation was used to evaluate the probability of overcoming the threshold of their mechanical tolerance necessary for the induction of SH of cerebrovenous origin. The analytical technology is proposed for forensic medical reconstruction of the mechanism of development of subdural hematomas following multiple head injury. It is concluded that the results of the study can be used for the purposes of practical forensic medical examination.
