Description
Jekaterina Strelčenko and co-authors report, in a 2025 forensic case study, a run-over injury pattern they say has never been written up before. Car-pedestrian deaths are common in forensic work, and much of the damage hides under near-normal skin. Guts spilling out through a torn belly wall or chest are known but rare. In this case, the spill path was the wrist.
A woman of seventy was run over by a truck and died at the scene. The outer exam showed many injuries, with bad soft tissue damage in the left arm. Inside, doctors found fractures and organ ruptures, and small intestine pushed out through the torn skin of the lower arm. The team paired the case with a review of past literature to show how singular the pattern is.
