| Abstract: | The authors present a very rare case of fatal injuries resulting from shooting a parachute signal rocket with a hand operated launcher of signal pistol kind by pseudo-football fans. A 16-year-old football fan sustained extensive thermal burn of his lower extremities and abdomen, lacerated wound of his left thigh with a deep signal rocket-shot canal which caused injuries in subcutaneous tissue, fascia and both medial and posterior muscles of the thigh as well as injured both femoral vein and artery with subsequent hemorrhagic, burn and traumatic shocks. In spite of specialistic surgical treatment, the victim was not rescued. Analysis of medical documentation and our autopsy results were supplemented with an expert's opinion on physicochemical examinations supported by photographic documentation. |
