Abstract
A 20- year-old male presented with traumatic basal subarachnoid hemorrhage after being involved in a fight. Antemortem clinical examination could not exclude the possibility of rupture of abnomal blood vessels because of the absence of the external injuries.Careful postmortem of examination of the head and neck regions and histological examination of the intracranial arteries demonstrated traumatic rupture of the left posterior inferior cerebellar artery due to a fist blow to the jaw.This case indicates the need for careful autopsy examination for the differentiation of traumatic and non traumatic basal suburachnoid hemorrhages
