Abstract

This study examined 126 unembalmed cadaver experiments in which the lower extremities are dynamically loaded. The injury data associated with the 126 cadaver leg impacts were examined to determine how well the existing femur injury criteria separate these specific cases. Most of the injuries were fractures although there were some traumas to ligaments and muscles.
