Fig. 3D. 11-week-old male infant with blunt force injuries of chest and abdomen. Extremity fractures and healed rib fractures were detected only on postmortem radiography. Acute rib fractures were revealed both at autopsy and on postmortem radiography. Anteroposterior radiograph of chest reveals fractures with callus formation of right lateral third and fourth ribs and right posterior ninth ribs (large arrows). Note acute fractures involving left posterior third, fourth, seventh, eighth, and ninth ribs (arrowheads) and left lateral sixth and seventh ribs (small arrows). Endotracheal tube terminates in distal trachea. Gastric dilatation resulted from resuscitative efforts at scene before intubation.
