Valve-spring headache

Sam McCormack
MJA 2004; 181 (11/12): 708

3D reconstructed image from a multidetector computed tomography scan of the head.

This unfortunate patient was involved in a motor vehicle accident. Being an old car there were no airbags, and valve springs are obviously a poor substitute.
