In cases of traumatic death, precise injury evaluation is crucial for both legal and medical reasons. In the modern era, many scholarly articles recommend postmortem computed tomography (PMCT) instead of routine postmortem practices. This case report compares the findings of PMCT with those of conventional autopsy methods for assessing blunt traumatic injuries. In this case, we received the body of a 16-year-old male who died due to a road traffic accident. Before performing a routine postmortem examination, we performed CT imaging to compare the findings with those of routine procedures. This report highlights the significance of the conventional postmortem approach in identifying soft tissue and bony injuries that are undetectable by imaging techniques. While CT imaging offers noninvasive visualization of injuries, manual examination remains essential for identifying specific injuries, particularly those affecting soft tissues. The combination of CT imaging and conventional autopsy procedures strengthens the precision and dependability of forensic evaluations in cases of traumatic death, especially in intricate situations involving multiple wounds. Recognizing the advantages and constraints of these methods is vital for advancing forensic inquiries and improving legal outcomes in medical contexts.
