Background: In India, Traumatic brain injuries (TBI) due to road traffic accidents (RTA) are most common. The most vulnerable part of the body, which is affected by road traffic accidents, is the head. The various injuries were broadly classified apart from head into, Neck, Thoracic, Abdominal, Pelvic etc. Head related injuries were grouped into Mild, Moderate and Severe Head injury. Autopsy is the final opportunity to find out the exact cause of death. The aim of the present study is to find the most common autopsy findings. Most deaths take place within 24 hours of injury, before reaching the tertiary hospital most of the times. Clinical and radiological examination may not reveal the full extent of injuries, among RTA cases in head injuries and correlation of findings with time of survival. However, 20 to 50 million people sustain various forms of RTA injuries.
