N2  - Position at the time of burning can be precisely determined by analysis of the depth, configuration, distribution of the burn, flexion creases and spared areas. This information is very useful in determining non-accidental injuries in children. Although specific pattern injuries are rare in adults, we report an example of a self-inflicted burn in a schizophrenic which resembles a 'forced immersion burn'.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
