Abstract

This article examines the neurological effects of electrical injuries through three distinct clinical cases. The first case presented symptoms resembling multiple sclerosis, the second involved ulnar paralysis, and the third showed oculo-pupillary syndrome with cervical sympathetic nerve dysfunction. Factors such as current intensity, point of contact, and physiological condition of the individual were found to influence the neurological outcome. The paper also discusses the forensic significance of electrical injuries and the long-term implications of clinical symptoms.

Elektrik Kazasıyla Meydana Gelen Üç Nörolojik Vak’a

https://izlik.org/JA22ZF63DB

Abstract

Bu makale, elektrik kazalarının sinir sistemi üzerindeki etkilerini üç farklı klinik vaka üzerinden incelemektedir. İlk vakada multipl skleroz benzeri semptomlar, ikinci vakada ulnaris paralizisi ve üçüncü vakada oculo-pupillaire sendrom ile birlikte servikal sempatik sinir düzensizliği gözlenmiştir. Elektrik akımının şiddeti, temas noktası ve organizmanın fizyolojik durumu gibi faktörlerin nörolojik tabloyu belirlemede etkili olduğu vurgulanmıştır. Ayrıca elektrik şokunun adli tıptaki önemi ve klinik semptomların uzun vadeli sonuçları tartışılmıştır.
