Introduction: The indication of the existence of vital danger in the temporary judicial reports of incidents without life danger, the accused of the incident often leads to severe legal consequences such as the limitation of freedom, and the indication that there is no vital danger in the subsequent detailed report is confident to the doctors. The purpose: The judicial cases that apply to the Department of Legal Medicine of the University of Gazi is to investigate the consistency between the vital danger-like concept specified in the previously organized judicial reports and the vital danger concept specified in the exact reports given by us. Tools and methods: by the Department of Legal Medicine of the University of Gazi Medical School of the 1997-2004 years, the exact report of 540 incidents, 449 (% 83) was identified. 1) the temporary judicial reports of the University of Gazi Medical School Hospital have been reached and the facts have been analyzed retrospectively by scanning the aspects of life-threatening existence in the age, gender, type of event, wound-range area, the temporary judicial report and the exact report. Results: 62.0% of the applicant’s cases (335) are male and 38.0% (205) female. Traffic accidents occur at the beginning of 71.9% (388) cases. The most common wound-lanan area is the 57.2% (309) head-bound area. According to the report, 46.6 percent of the incidents indicated in the presence of life hazard in the temporary judicial reports, which were organized by non-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the-the- This difference has been statistically significant (p<0.05). The conclusion: We believe that the differences between the vital hazard framework indicated in the provisional judicial reports and accurate reports can be eliminated by the attitude of non-Justice physicians to build their reports on objective criteria.

Purpose: The aim of this study is to research the consistency between the vi-tal risks in temporary reports given by physicians and definitive reports given by the Forensic Medicine Department of Gazi University Medical Faculty of forensic cases dealt with by the Forensic Medicine Department of Gazi University Medical Faculty; and to determine the difficulty faced by physicians who are not forensic medicine specialists in distinguishing exposure to vital risk in forensic cases. Methods: The temporary reports of 449 of 540 subjects (83.1%) for whom definitive reports were given by Gazi University Medical Faculty Department of Forensic Medicine between 1997 and 2004 were obtained from the Gazi University Medical Faculty Hospital archives. The reports were evaluated ret-rospectively with regard to age, gender, type of event, injury location, and vital risk presence in temporary and definitive reports, and they were analyzed. Results: 62.0% (335) of the forensic cases involved males, and 38.5% (205) females. Traffic accidents ranked first, with 71.9% (388). The most common injury location was the head and neck. There was a statistically significant diff-ference between vital risk in temporary and definitive reports; 46.6% (82) of the cases with a temporary report of vital risk had no vital risk in the definitive report (p<0.05). Conclusion: We think that differences between the vital risk revealed in tem- porary forensic reports given by physicians who are not forensic medicine spe- cialists and definitive reports given by forensic medicine specialists could be eliminated with an increase in the use of objective criteria when giving forensic reports by the latter group.
