N2  - The paper deals with the analysis of diagnostic errors and lethality causes among the victims of traffic accidents. It was found that 40.75% of cases died from craniocerebral injuries, 32.5%-from traumatic shock and blood loss. Complete coincidence of clinical and medicolegal diagnosis was in 47.05% of cases, and complete discrepancy in 8.13%. The greatest number of errors are concerned with the diagnosis and treatment of chest and abdomen injuries. The least number of errors were made in big multiprofile clinics with well organized reanimation service. Some recommendations on the improvement of the organization of the treatment of traffic accident cases, ways of preventing diagnostic errors and the decrease of lethality are suggested.<p />  <p>Language: ru</p>
