title: [Forensic clinical analysis on 25 cases of traumatic cerebral infarction].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To investigate characteristics of forensic clinical identification on traumatic cerebral infarction(TCI).
  
  
  METHODS
  Twenty-five cases of TCI were analyzed retrospectively, including the general situation, location of infarction and clinical feature.
  
  
  RESULTS
  TCI occurred primarily in children and elderly. All the cases had definite cerebral trauma which was located mainly in the regions of basal ganglia-internal capsule, frontal, temporal and parietal cerebral cortex.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The consequence of TCI has direct correlation with location of cerebral infarction. More attention should be paid to this issue in forensic practice.
