De rares décisions ont alloué des indemnités au titre du préjudice moral à des victimes estimant que «la perte irréversible et majeure de la qualité de vie personnelle et sociale» justifiait l'allocation d'une indemnité distincte de celle allouée au titre des autres préjudices comme le pretium doloris.
