我们报告一个罕见的情况下，致命的放血wakizashi，日本短剑（shinken）。一名60多岁的男子被发现仰卧在床上。当救护人员到达时，他的心肺骤停，到达医院时被宣布死亡。在地板上发现了一把刀刃上有血迹的wakizashi，发现该名男子的床单上也有血迹。尸检显示，唯一的伤口是左大腿前部从上外侧斜向延伸到下内侧的切割伤。伤口大部分是直的，约44厘米长，9厘米深，伤口壁光滑。左股动脉和静脉被完全切断，死亡原因被确定为切断的血管失血。Wakizashi（刀片长度，45厘米）足够大，足以造成伤口，推测左大腿被剑向下的一刀割伤。
We report a rare case of fatal exsanguination by a wakizashi, a Japanese short sword (shinken). A man in his 60s was found lying on his back on his bed. He was in cardiopulmonary arrest when the ambulance crew arrived and was pronounced dead on arrival at the hospital. A wakizashi with blood stains on the blade was found on the floor, and blood was present on the bed sheets on which the man was found. Autopsy revealed an incised wound extending diagonally from superolaterally to inferomedially on the anterior left thigh as the only injury. The wound appeared mostly straight, approximately 44 cm long and 9 cm deep, with smooth walls. The left femoral artery and vein had been cleanly severed, and the cause of death was determined to be blood loss from the severed blood vessels. The wakizashi (blade length, 45 cm) was large enough to have caused the wound, and the left thigh was presumed to have been incised by a downward slash from the sword.
