RESUMEN
Si bien el diagnóstico de la tortura en restos humanosse ha concentrado principalmente en el examen devictimas vivas y en cadáveres poco o nada ha sido hechoen restos esqueletizados. Este trabajo discute el rol delos traumatismos torácicos como un indicador de lesionesno accidentales causadas con el fin de incapacitarmás no matar a la victima de violaciones a los DerechosHumanos. Para ilustrar el diagnóstico diferencial a lesionesatribuibles a “tortura” y a otros mecanismos se presentantres casos, dos de los cuales podrían ser clasificadoscomo tortura y uno que es excluido por mostrar uncuadro lesivo compatible con un accidente de tráfico(AU)
ABSTRACT
While the diagnosis of torture has been primarilyconcentrated in the examination of living victims andcadavers, little or no work has been undertaken inskeletonised remains. This paper discusses the role of nonaccidentaltoracic trauma as an indicator of inflicted lesionswith the aim of incapacitating but not killing certain victimsof Human Rights violations. In order to illustrate differentialdiagnosis of injuries attributable to “torture” as well as othermechanisms three cases are presented in which could beattributed to torture and one is an exclusion of thatscenario and is more consistent with a road traffic accident(AU)
