[8] A bone may be injured in a different part of the head from that on which the person has received the wound, and the bone has been laid bare. This is the fifth mode. And for this misfortune, when it occurs, there is no remedy; for when this mischief takes place, there is no means of ascertaining by any examination whether or not it has occurred, or on what part of the head.

8. Ὀστέον τιτρώσκεται ἄλλῃ τῆς κεφαλῆς, ἢ ᾗ τὸ ἕλκος
ἔχει ὥνθρωπος, καὶ τὸ ὀστέον ἐψιλώθη τῆς σαρκός· πέμπτος
οὗτος τρόπος. Καὶ ταύτην τὴν ξυμφορὴν, ὅταν γένηται, οὐκ ἂν
ἔχοις ὠφελῆσαι οὐδέν. Οὐδὲ γὰρ, εἰ πέπονθε τὸ κακὸν τοῦτο, οὐκ
ἔστιν ὅκως χρὴ αὐτὸν ἐξελέγξαντα εἰδέναι εἰ πέπονθε τὸ κακὸν
τοῦτο ὥνθρωπος, οὐδ᾿ ὅκοι τῆς κεφαλῆς.
