Basal skull fractures are frequent and cause certain difficulties in detection of the mechanism of their formation. Common dissecting methods do not allow detailed study of the external base of skull and deform facial soft tissues. A new method is developed, which allows determining the mechanism of formation of constructional fractures of the basal skull and pterygoid processes at various injuries, in particular, inside a passenger compartment at headon collision of motor vehicles. The method is registered as an invention.
