Abstract

Head injury is supposed to be the most dangerous type of injury as it causes trauma to brain or its associated structures. A small child of about 3 yrs age expired as was injured by a bicycle at his house. The mentionable part of this injury was the way it took place. The history by the relatives was not sufficient enough to determine the cause of death. However meticulous autopsy could reveal the story. The present paper describes the findings along with a brief discussion on related part of head injury by penetrating injury through eye.
