RESUMO

The current study was conducted from 1 November 2002 to 31 October 2004 at Topiwala National Medical College & BYL Nair Charitable Hospital, Mumbai. A total of 189 victims of fatal blunt head injury were recorded and a complete medicolegal autopsy was conducted on each of these victims during this period. The postmortem study revealed that males were the most common victims with the highest number being in the age group of the third and fourth decades. Accidents were responsible for most of them, followed by homicidal deaths, with suicides recorded as the least. Of the accidents, railway accidents were responsible for the maximum number. The study revealed that the highest number of fatalities occurred during the peak hours of the day. The fissured fracture was the most common type of fracture observed. Among the specialized fractures of the base of the skull, type-1 hinge fracture was the most common. A combination of subdural and subarachnoid haemorrhages was the most common observation. Blunt cranio-cerebral injury was the primary cause of death in more than half of the victims
