description Galeazzi fracture is described as fracture pattern, which includes radius shaft fractures with distal radioulnar joint dislocation. The most common etiologies of Galeazzi fracture in literature are fall from the high distance, traffic accidents, and job accidents. On the other hand, Galeazzi fracture, which is formed as a result of a traffic accident, such as in our case, is rarely encountered in the literature. We believe that alongside the security belt and steering wheel mark which identifies the driver, Galeazzi fracture also might be beneficial in the identification of the driver in forensics evaluations.
