Penetrating craniocerebral injuries caused by a bladed weapon are rare events in western countries and often occur in the course of assault. We studied all homicide-related cases of cranial and brain injuries caused by bladed weapons that were seen at the Medicolegal Institute of Marseille over a 5-year period from 2014 to 2019. We found that such injuries are exceptional. The majority occur in the private sphere and are inflicted by men, as they require considerable force. They are rarely isolated but are accompanied by multiple cutting injuries of the thorax and abdomen. Such assaults leave imprints on the bone that can be analyzed using new anthropological techniques.
被刃器穿透的颅脑损伤在西方国家较为罕见，通常发生在袭击过程中。我们研究了马赛法医研究所 2014 年至 2019 年期间发生的 5 年间与刃器相关的所有凶杀案导致的颅脑损伤案例。我们发现此类损伤较为罕见，多数发生在私人领域，由男性造成，因为此类损伤需要相当大的力量。此类损伤很少是孤立的，通常伴随着胸部和腹部的多处切割伤。此类袭击会在骨头上留下痕迹，可以使用新的人类学技术进行分析。
