This piece summarizes the findings of a trauma victim’s autopsy report. The realistic rendering style and the plaintiff’s likeness (blurred here to protect privacy) are meant to facilitate the drama and emotion in the courtroom. Injuries illustrated include rib, pelvic, and radial fractures; displacement of the kidneys from the abdominal wall and right and left liver lobes into the thoracic cavity; and soft tissue injuries to the lungs, aorta, vena cava, pericardium, diaphragm, liver and spleen.
