Investigators attributed to Mozart nearly 150 different medical diagnoses. However, the neurosurgical aspect of the early death of Mozart has yet to be well-analyzed, and this subject was investigated herein. The key words \u201cMozart\u201d and \u201cMozart\u2019s death\u201d were searched in PubMed as well as the libraries of universities. The main source was the archive and website of Internationale Stiftung MOZARTEUM\/Salzburg (<jats:uri xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" xlink:type=\"simple\" xlink:href=\"http:\/\/www.mozarteum.at\">www.mozarteum.at<\/jats:uri>) and the cranium stored in the Internationale Stiftung Mozarteum in Salzburg\/Austria. The linear fracture of the cranium is important, since it shows the neurosurgical aspect of the early death of Mozart. Mozart\u2019s disease was most likely a neurotraumatologic one. His fracture likely occurred several months before his death, as evidenced by signs of healing. Intense headaches and declining musical performance in his last year may have been influenced by intracranial hemorrhage induced by the linear fracture. His final disease therefore may have been chronic postconcussion syndrome depending on chronic calcified epidural hematoma.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1017\/s1092852918001736","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,4,23]],"date-time":"2019-04-23T04:10:58Z","timestamp":1555992658000},"page":"628-631","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["A different aspect of the unexpected death of Mozart at the age of 35 years"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"24","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8189-2877","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ayhan","family":"Kanat","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Elena","family":"Romana Gasenzer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Edmund","family":"Neugebauer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,4,23]]},"reference":[{"key":"S1092852918001736_ref21","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/02688697.2018.1467000"},{"key":"S1092852918001736_ref18","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/SCS.0000000000001806"},{"key":"S1092852918001736_ref17","first-page":"99","article-title":"Chronic subdural hematoma in adults: why does it occur more often in males than females?
