abstract="We report the case of a fall (height 12 m) from an onshore wind turbine. With craniocerebral, chest, and spinal trauma, the patient survived subsequent to adequate first aid, quick arrival of professional medical care, and immediate transport to an appropriate hospital combined with ensuing therapy. In addition, the kinematics of fracture sequence and soft-tissue injuries during the impact were relevant to survival. In an analogous offshore wind turbine accident, a poorer patient outcome compared to an onshore accident would be probable due to the extended rescue times.   <p>Language: de</p>",
