In pathological-forensic literature blast injuries are usually studied in relation to suicides, homicides during terroristic attacks and accidental events on the workplace, while the finding of these kinds of fatalities during misdoing is a recent occurrence. The Authors describe the peculiar case of the accidental death of the member of a criminal mob specialized in thefts to ATMs using acetylene tanks. The victim, having poured out the acetylene with the intent of triggering an explosion, was involved in the blast of the tank, deceasing immediately. This unusual manner of death highlights the danger of room saturation with acetylene, a criminal technique becoming more and more popular in the last years.
在病理法医学文献中，爆炸伤通常是与自杀、恐怖袭击中的杀人案以及工作场所的意外事件相关联进行研究的，而在犯罪行为中发现这类死亡事件则是最近才出现的情况。作者描述了一起特殊的意外死亡案例，一名专门盗窃自动取款机的犯罪团伙成员使用乙炔罐作案。受害者为引发爆炸而倾倒出乙炔时，卷入了罐体爆炸，当场死亡。这种不同寻常的死亡方式凸显了乙炔充满空间的危险性，这是一种近年来越来越流行的犯罪手段。
