A 48 years old man was sent to hospital through emergency room immediately after head injuries. He was arrived at hospital being dead and autopsy was done sixty hours later after insult. Multiple skull fractures and brain parenchymal contusions, subarachnoid hemorrhage, stem hemorrhage were noted, and these injuries were considering as a cause of death. Interestingly, blood alcohol concentration (BAC) using cardiac blood was very high (0.738%) in this case. Here in, we report abnormally high BAC in heart blood which is not a cause of death and we review the general aspects about alcohol concentration interpretation.
Key words : Blood Alcohol concentration (BAC); Alcohol consumption; Head trauma, Cause of death, Autopsy
