abstract="Patterns of self-inflicted injury vary widely depending on the mechanism of injury and intent of the individual. Life threatening injuries are usually inflicted with suicidal intent. Non-life threatening injuries can be divided into three groups distinguished by distinct patterns of injury and underlying psychopathology. Recognition of these patterns facilitates optimal treatment of the injury and psychological morbidity.
