Annals of the Academy of Medicine Singapore, 38(2), 156-157.0304-4602http://hdl.handle.net/11452/26243Studies have shown that cardiac ruptures due to blunt trauma are seen more often than expected. However, epicardial injuries and atrial ruptures are common findings in deaths due to falls. Our aim is to present a unique, isolated cardiac rupture in a 1 year-old child resulting from a fall from a bed, to evaluate autopsy findings among the literature from a medico-legal point of view.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessAutopsyChildhoodFallBlunt chest traumaInjuryHeartGeneral & internal medicineAccidental fallsChild, preschoolDiagnosis, differentialFatal outcomeFemaleHeart injuriesHeart ventriclesHumansArticle0002646579000122-s2.0-6454915253115615738219271045Medicine, general & internalThorax Injury; Commotio Cordis; Tricuspid ValveArticleAutopsyBlunt traumaCase reportChildCompressionFallingFemaleHeart injuryHeart left ventricleHeart ruptureHumanMedicolegal aspectMortalityPreschool childThorax injuryThorax pressure
