Abstract

The mechanisms and patterns of high voltage electric current injury to living tissues are not fully understood. Most available data is derived from animal experimentation using voltages that are considerably lower that those encountered by human victims during electrocution accidents. This work aims to contribute human tissue histological data by analyzing the pattern of tissue damage after a real life unfortunate high voltage electrocution accident.
