History
Department of Forensic Medicine in National Pirogov Memorial Medical University, Vinnytsya was organized in 1936. The duties of the head of the department were temporarily performed by A.K. Sudomyr (Head of the Department of Psychiatry). In 1939-1941 the department was headed by prof. Ya.L. Leibovych.
Professor Ya.L. Leibovych
In 1919 he became the first head of the forensic medical examination department of the People's Commissariat for Health of Soviet Russia. Leibovych Yakov Lvovych devoted a lot of effort and energy to the practical solution of the important task – the development of a program for the development of the state forensic medical service. Under his leadership and with direct participation, all fundamental documents were developed that determined the structure and forms of activity of the state forensic medical service for many years to come. Ya.L. Leibovych was the editor-in-chief of the first Russian periodical collection "Forensic medical examination" for the entire period of its existence (1925-1931). A large number of his publications were devoted to the organization and state of the forensic medical service, medical deontology, analysis of suicides and other issues. June 29, 1941 prof. Ya.L. Leibovych was arrested by the NKVD. His further fate is unknown.
In the postwar years, from 1945 to 1948, the Department of Forensic Medicine was headed by Docent D.A. Galaev, from 1948 to 1950 – I.V. Almazov.
In 1950, the head of the department was appointed professor V.P. Tsipkovsky – an outstanding forensic physician, scientist, student of Professor M.M. Bocarius. Under his leadership, the Department of Forensic Medicine at the Vinnitsa Medical Institute was actually recreated anew. Vasily Panteleimonovych began to create a forensic medical museum of macro-preparations. Thanks to his efforts and perseverance, the Department of Forensic Medicine of the Vinnytsia Medical Institute received a new building with a well-equipped morgue and a laboratory at that time and quickly became one of the best and most authoritative in Ukraine.
Professor V.P. Tsipkovsky
V.P. Tsipkovsky was actively and fruitfully engaged in scientific activities. He wrote about 70 scientific works, among which the monograph “Inspection of the scene and the corpse at the place of its discovery”, published in 1960, deserves special attention for its value for scientists and experts. V.P. Tsipkovsky is a prominent representative of the forensic area in forensic medicine. His scientific works concern many areas of forensic medicine: sudden death, poisoning, determination of the severity of bodily injury, mechanical asphyxia, self-harm, aviation and railway injury. The works of the scientist in the field of gunshot wounds are especially important. He defended the widespread introduction of the radiographic research method in forensic medical examinations. Under the guidance of Professor V.P. Tsipkovsky about 10 master's theses have been completed.
In 1972, Docent A.I. Krat – student of Professor V.P. Tsipkovsky, become new head of department.
Docent A.I. Krat
In 1951, Andrii Illarionovych graduated from the Vinnitsa Medical Institute and began working as an assistant in the Department of Forensic Medicine of this institute. Since then, all his further activities have been associated with this higher educational institution. In 1961 A.I. Krat defended his Ph.D. thesis on the topic: "The forensic significance of the blood filling of the spleen in asphyxia", in which, for the first time, in the course of numerous experiments on animals and considerable expert material, he studied the state of the spleen in various types of mechanical asphyxia.
Andrii Illarionovych was a highly qualified specialist, selflessly related to his work. For many years he was the dean of the medical faculty. He has published more than 60 scientific works on topical issues of forensic medicine. In 1997, he wrote a guide "Principles for making a diagnosis and expert conclusions", in which he summarized the experience of rational approaches to one of the difficult and controversial sections of the forensic medical profession. Andrii Illarionovych headed the department until 1985, and then from 1995 until the end of his life (2001).
Docent S.O. Kozlova
From 1985 to 1995, the head of the Department of Forensic Medicine was Docent S.O. Kozlova. In 1960 she graduated from the Vinnitsa Medical Institute, worked at the department as an assistant. In 1967 S.O. Kozlova defended her Ph.D. thesis on the topic "Forensic classification of the severity of nasal injuries", in which, based on the study and analysis of forensic practical and clinical material, she proposed scientifically substantiated criteria for assessing the severity of damage to the nasal bones.
Kozlova Svitlana Oleksandrivna was a wonderful teacher, lecturer and scientist, has published more than 70 scientific works devoted to the issues of forensic medicine, especially various aspects of diagnostics of lifetime and prescription of mechanical injury. She was the author of the first textbook on forensic medicine in the Republic of Afghanistan.
From 2001 to 2020, the Department of Forensic Medicine was reformed into an appropriate course at the Department of Pathological Anatomy, Forensic Medicine and Law.
