TI  - Evaluation of Non-fatal Forensic Vascular Injuries
AB  - In the forensic report, whether the injury includes "vascular injury" or not, the life-threatening situation is important for the investigation. In this study, it was aimed to evaluate the vascular injury status and share the data with the literature in cases related to forensic traumatology, which were reflected in the Forensic Medicine Department of Eskişehir Osmangazi University Faculty of Medicine. In the 5-year period between 2015 and 2019, the cases with vascular injury, who applied to the Eskişehir Osmangazi University Faculty of Medicine, Department of Forensic Medicine, were retrospectively analyzed. Report contents and demographic data of the cases were evaluated. It was determined that 52 (1.2%) of 4378 forensic cases evaluated within the scope of the study had vascular injury. 90.3% of the patients with vascular injury were male, they were most frequently in the 19-29 age group, 69.3% of the cases were stab wounds, and the most commonly injured vessel was a.femoralis and its branches (n=11, %21.2). The data obtained in the study were found to be compatible with the literature. It was thought that in-service trainings on this subject were important, especially for emergency room doctors to be more attentive in issuing forensic reports, to take necessary measures to prevent them from being held responsible in cases of vascular injury and other forensic cases, to protect the legal rights of victims.
