Police have launched an appeal after a man died from injuries he suffered in an assault in Sydney's north more than two weeks earlier.

A strike force has been formed to investigate how a 59-year-old man suffered critical head injuries at a unit complex on Pittwater Road in Manly about 5.45pm on February 27.

The man had been taken to Royal North Shore Hospital.
