Perimortem Fracture Patterns

Perimortem Fracture Patterns is a taphonomic signature characterized by the distinctive arrangement and morphology of bone fractures occurring at or near the time of death, distinguished from postmortem breakage by specific features such as greenstick fracturing, plastic deformation, and conchoidal scarring indicative of biomechanical force application on biologically fresh bone.
