[Unexplained deaths in war injuries in Bosnia and Herzegovina].

The paper presents the research in cases of the unexpected and sudden of the patients injured by fire-arms, during the aggression on BH. On the basis of the results of the origin of injury, the period of providing medical aid, the level of tissue damage and the function disturbancy, it could be concluded that numerous factors which are typical for the state of war are included comarde to the influencing factor of injuries observed in the incidents in the times of peace. The injuries in the course of the aggression are characterized by a severe tissue damage which is frequently followed by the poison gases poisoning, the quality of the first aid given, delayed and aggravated transportation, multi-organic disbalance of the morphological structures and functions as well as an increased development of these mediators which bring about this type of disbalance. The lack of chemical diagnostic means prevents the determination of existence of the indicators of threatening deaths in the cases where there are no clinical signs for a fatal outcome. The frequency of casualties has prevented the prompt control of the biochemics and thus resulted in the increase of the number of unexpected and unclarified deaths.
