4. A 9 year old girl, born in a Hong Kong transit camp to North Vietnamese parents, arrived in Glasgow with her parents in September 1981. Vietnamese children are susceptible to upper respiratory tract infections in Britain,' and during the first six months of residence this child was seen by one of us (AGJ) because of five upper respiratory tract infections. She presented with a mild bronchitis and was prescribed an antibiotic and an expectorant. At this time she was noted to have faint bruises on her lower back. She was reviewed four days later, at which time there were two fresh, livid, linear bruises on her posterior chest and four similar marks on her neck. The chest infection settled in five days, and the bruises had faded completely by the fourth day
5. Non-accidental injury was suspected in this child because of the association between unexplained linear bruising and multiple upper respiratory infections. A case conference was convened, and with the help of an interpreter the true facts emerged. The bruising had been produced by a form of "paediatric massage" known as "t'i-sha," "chih-sha," "nieh-sha," or "nui-sha."2 In these techniques the skin is "pinched and pulled" between the curved index and middle fingers
