abstract="The case records of 1,137 patients with trauma suffered as the result of a fall from a height were studied, 399 of them (35.1%) had a craniocerebral trauma. Isolated traumas with injury to the cranial bones and brain accounted for 74.4% of cases, multiple injuries (injuries to the cranial bones, brain, and facial skeleton) for 0.8%, and combined injuries (injuries (injuries to the skull, brain, weight-bearing and motor apparatus, and internal organs) for 24.8%. Severe craniocerebral trauma was encountered in 34.9% of the injured, trauma of moderate severity in 24.3%, and mild craniocerebral trauma in 40.8% of the injured. Death from a craniocerebral trauma suffered in a fall from a height occurred at the site of the accident in 17.2% of cases and in later periods at the hospital in 12.7% of cases.<p /><p>Language: ru</p>",
