METHODS: Forensic cases who applied to the Amasya University Sabuncuoğlu Şerefeddin Training and Research Hospital between 01.01.2018 and 31.12.2022 were examined. 53314 forensic case entries were evaluated. RESULTS: In the 5-year analysis, 53314 cases were evaluated and the mean age was found to be 33.7. 76.2% of the cases were male (n=40618) and 23.8% were female (n=12696). Among all cases, occupational accidents were determined as 6.8%, traffic accidents as 9.7%, and other cases as 83.5%. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION: In our study, it\'s noteworthy that occupational accident cases are higher than what is reported in the literature. In order to mitigate preventable health issues like occupational accidents, it is essential to organize necessary training sessions and implement precautionary measures. In the context of criminal and compensation law, it is recognized that individuals might experience loss of rights if the types of cases are not accurately identified. To prevent this situation, maintaining records accurately and comprehensively is of paramount importance.Keywords : Adli vaka, Trafik kazası, İş kazası
