Adli tıbbi uygulamalarda hatalı tanımlama, yanlış karar: Olgu sunumuYıldıray Zeyfeoğlu, Tarık Uluçay, Mehmet Sunay Yavuz, Mahmut AşırdizerCelal Bayar Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi, Adli Tıp Anabilim Dalı, ManisaMuayene edilen hastalarda bulunan lezyonların doğru tanımlanması, adli tıp uygulamaları kadar hekimlik mesleğinde de son derece önemlidir. Ancak, pratisyen ve klinisyen hekimler çoğu zaman kendilerine başvuran hastalardaki lezyon ve bulguları tanımlama ve bunları kayıt altına alma konusunda gereken önemi göstermemekte, lezyonları eksik ya da hatalı olarak tanımlamakta, bu da özellikle adli olgu niteliği taşıyan travmatik olayların yorumlanmasında ve yargılanma aşamasında doğru kararların oluşmasına engel teşkil etmektedir. Incorrect identification in forensic medicine (wrong conclusion): a case reportYıldıray Zeyfeoğlu, Tarık Uluçay, Mehmet Sunay Yavuz, Mahmut AşırdizerDepartment Of Forensic Medicine, Medical Faculty Of Celal Bayar University, Manisa, TurkeyCorrect identification of lesions in examined patients is as important in forensic medicine application as it is in the medical profession. However, general practitioners and clinicians often fail to give proper attention to the definition and recording of the lesions and clinical findings in patients. Additionally, the identification of the lesion is sometimes deficient or incorrect. This has hindered, particularly in traumatic events that are of a forensic nature, reaching accurate conclusions during the interpretative and legal phases. In this study, we describe the case of a nine-year-old boy admitted to the hospital following a traffic accident. During his evaluation, an ecchymosis “resembling a rail” on his chest was noted. Consequently, legal/judicial authorities suspected the child may have been exposed to violence or child abuse and he was referred to our department. Practitioners may contribute to inaccurate decisions/conclusions if they fail to give the necessary detailed attention during the forensic interpretation (detailed examination and recording of lesions) and judicial process or if they have insufficient knowledge on this subject. This case is submitted as an interesting example since it included the possibility of inaccurate conclusion and judgment.
