The aim of the work: to study the peculiarities of the morphology of stab and slash wounds of the heart caused by national Uzbek knives.
Materials and Methods. A study was made of a material presented by 30 observations of those killed as a result of infiltrating stab and slash wounds with heart damage caused by national Uzbek knives. Thus, stab wounds were more common in men, wounds were mainly in the area of the ventricles and less often in the atria. Stab and slash wounds caused by Uzbek national knives, have an angular, oval, linear shape. The rubber ends have a P-, G-, T-shaped form, the blade ends are sharp.
Results and Discussion. It was revealed that the heart walls, in comparison with skin wounds, have a higher morphological identification significance. The heart after the restoration in Ratnevskyi's solution was deformed less than the skin wounds, and the length of the stab and slash heart wounds more exactly corresponds to the width of the wedge of the piercing – cutting tool. This may be due to the features of the structure of the epicardium and myocardium, which are less prone to retraction. On the heart tissues, the design features of the shoe and blades of knife blades are sufficiently fully de fined, so they can be used for group identification of traumatic tools.
