Abstract:
In clinical and legal cases some injuries found in living patient or dead body can give rise to difficulties of interpretation regarding the nature of the legally relevant formation mechanism. A field of study that offers often this issue is the brain hemorrhage that it could be traumatic or no traumatic. The authors propose a narrative review of the literature that enables us to recognize in the analysis of the kind of bleeding or type of associated lesions, useful and updated support tools for settlement of the case in question.
