Overview

The histologica and immunohistochemical examination of cervical spinal cord were used in the group of 11 deceased of violent death. The positivity of neuron-specific enolase (NSE) in axons of cervical spinal cord was examined, and findings in the group of deceased on craniocervical injury (7 cases) and the group of deceased without cranio-cervical trauma (4 cases) were compared. While a routine histological examination including Palmgren’s staining showed no significant differences between bouth groups, we noticed an increased frequency of appearance of NSE deceased with craniocervical injury.

Key words:
trauma of spinal cord – immunohistohemic – neuron-specific enolase
