Female urethral injury are very uncommon and encountered during traffic accident, trauma, instrumentation, operation and delivery. Treatment modalities are determined by the level of urethral injury. The result was better in the cases of rapid operative treatment than delayed one. In this report the clinical findings, patterns of injury and surgical managementof 4 cases were reviewed.

Traffic accident leaves various traces on vehicle, road or pedestrians and these can be viewed as the failure mechanism of relatively moving obstacles. This paper introduces tribology and fractography, which are the parts of failure mechanics, as a means of theoretical analysis and approaching methods on the traffic accident. Actual specific traces are introduced as illustrations of tribology and fractogrphy. A verified traffic accident is also introduced as a case report.

We conducted a retrospective study on the medical records of patients with traffic accidents in Viet Duc Hospital. Results showed that the mortality rate and traffic accident were increasingly with development of socioeconomy. The mortality rate related with traffic accident was the same as this in Egypt. Most of them were men and ages of 24-45. Motorbike was most frequent cause of traffic accident. The rate of helmet using was low.

Purpose: study particularity of died patients at Viet Duc hospital in 1996. Material - Method: review reports of duty residents (every day), pathological department (monthly report) registered book of General Planning department and medical dossiers. Result: from 1/12/95 to 30/11/96: 458 deaths (52 died before admission), giving overall death rate 2.37%; 91.7% of them are emergent cases. Causes: traumatology 338 cases (73.7%) including traffic injury (81.3%), and pathology condition 120 cases (26.2%). Causes of death: polytraumatology, head injury, hear and vessel operation, biliary infectious shock, portal hypertension, bleeding etc. Conclusion: to reduce mortality rate: amelioration of different units coping with emergency, invest medical equipments. For traffic accident: a movement of combined actions of the police, the ministry of transportation, medical profession is needed to inform the public of prevention (traffic law, helmet wearing,...).

We report a forensic pathology study of 20 cases of road traffic accidents associated with high blood alcohol concentration seen at Central Forensic Medicine Center in 1991. In this period, among 224 traffic accidents blood alcohol concentration examination was carried out only on 32 cases, Age, sex, blood alcohol concentration and organ injuries were presented and discussed.

Traffic accident (TA) is now increasing and become a great cause of ' hospital overload'. One of its main causes is motocycle. Study was carried out on the traffic accident injury of people using motorcycle arriving at Emergency of Viet Duc Hospital during # 2 months of 1999. 780 cases (2 died before arrival) M: 565 (72.44%), F: 215 (27.56%), median age 32 (1-87), mainly happened during 14h-24 h (70%) at Hanoi 500 (64.1%) outside 274 (35.13%). Traffic accident frequently met at 2 ways streets and highway, with motosize 76-100 ml. There are 1 person and 2 persons on motorcycle at accident time of 563 drivers, 59.1% have licence, 16.7% related with alcohol and only 5.8% with helmet. Treatment: non-admission (discharge after care) 591 cases (75.96%) hospitalization (187-24.03%) principally at 2 departments: Trauma- Orthopady (89 cases 47.59%) and Neurosurgery (81 cases - 43.31%). Surgery: 70 cases. Death 13 (1.67%), back home (to die): 22(2.82%). Motorcycle is a most important vehicle of traffic accident. Main trauma: limb and injury. Main road: 2 ways street and highway (1A+ 5th). Helmet effectively protects people from injury.

Objective To discuss the application of 3D laser scanner and computer technology in restoration of the accident scene and reconstruction of the accident process, as well as identification of the driver-passenger relationship. Methods The scene of a traffic accident, the accident vehicle and the vehicle of the same type as accident vehicle were scanned using 3D laser scanner. The accident scene, traces and accident vehicle were integrated using computer technology to restore the accident scene, and the accident process was reconstructed and analyzed by combining the characteristics of the body injuries. Results By restoring the accident scene and reconstructing the accident process with 3D laser scanner, it was determined that Wu was in the driving seat at the time of the accident. Conclusion It is more objective and scientific to use 3D laser scanning technology to restore the accident scene, reconstruct the accident process and analyze the moving track of the driver and passengers in the vehicle. It will help to improve the accuracy of forensic identification of road traffic accidents.
