Snow groomer vehicle-related fatality: an illustrative case study of the importance of medicolegal involvement

Original language description

This article describes and discusses an unusual case of an accidental death of a 29-year-old female snowboarder. A snow-grooming vehicle had run over her body after she accidentally fell down during a training ride. According to the official statement, the victim was probably under the influence of alcohol or drugs, and the snowboarder caused the accident because she did not respect the safety restrictions and collided with the snow vehicle. However, forensic pathologists offered different conclusions to the police to place the responsibility of the accident by observing the characteristics of the injuries and analyzing the autopsy results. Autopsy findings led to the suspicion that the injuries on her body were a consequence of running over of the vehicle without any modifications caused by hitting. A title and abstract review of recent articles worldwide over the past 2 decades indicates that there have been no case reports that have focused on snow groomer vehicle-related fatality w
