Abstract: | One hundred and forty (140) medicolegal reports were analyzed in cases of non-lethal trauma of the head in children and teenagers. The specificity of the clinical pattern related with the anatomic-and-physiological peculiarities of child's body was defined. The forensic-medical expertise in such damages needs an elaboration of diagnostic criteria (e.g. an interim stage in craniocerebral trauma) that would be valuable both for medico-legal experts and for neurologists; besides, there is also a need in using the modern methods of neuro-visualization. |
