The aim was to evaluate the demographic data of dog-bite cases organized from criminal and forensic reports. This study evaluated 328 cases admitted to the Director of Forensic Medicine, Eskisehir, as a result of dog bites between January 1, 2006 and December 31, 2010. It was found that those in the age-group of 0-18 were most frequently exposed to dog bites (48.5%). Injuries to the lower extremity, upper extremity, and chest/abdomen/back were more frequent in men (72.6%, 76.4%, and 66.1%, respectively), while injuries to the head/neck/face were more frequent in women (52.3%) (p < 0.01). While most of those wounded in the upper extremity, the head/neck/face, and the chest/abdomen/back were in the child age-group, most of those wounded in the lower extremity were in the adult age-group (p < 0.001). Teaching children, in particular, how to behave around dogs would be useful in reducing the incidence of bite.
目的是评估从刑事和法医报告中整理出的犬咬伤病例的人口统计学数据。本研究评估了2006年1月1日至2010年12月31日期间因犬咬伤而被送往埃斯基谢希尔法医主任处的328例病例。结果发现，0至18岁年龄组的人最常遭受犬咬伤（48.5%）。男性下肢、上肢和胸部/腹部/背部受伤更为频繁（分别为72.6%、76.4%和66.1%），而女性头部/颈部/面部受伤更为频繁（52.3%）（p<0.01）。虽然上肢、头部/颈部/面部和胸部/腹部/背部受伤的大多数人属于儿童年龄组，但下肢受伤的大多数人属于成人年龄组（p<0.001）。特别是教导儿童如何在狗周围举止，将有助于降低咬伤的发生率。
