Gunshot injuries to the nerves
Chirurgie de la Main, 2011The authors report their 10-year experience in the treatment of war injuries in the Gaza strip. Bullet injuries to nerves can be assessed using Sunderland's classification. Grade 4 and 5 lesions must be repaired in the same way as any traumatic nerve injuries. A detailed series of sciatic nerve repair is presented.

[The "inner gunshot residue"--a gunshot entry marker in gunshot of ridged skin].
Archiv fur Kriminologie, 1992Gunshot residue below the surface of the skin is typical of a contact gunshot wound. However, in a case of our own, when a taxi-robber was shot by the cab driver through his right hand at a distance of several yards, this finding provoked quite a confusion. Only when experimental shots at thick glabrous skin were performed, it could be established that

Transmediastinal gunshot injuries
Surgery, 2000Transmediastinal gunshot injuries are a rarely reported injury. Until recently, assessment of the thoracic aorta by angiography preceded the investigation of the esophagus. This order has been recently debated.There were 118 patients with potential transmediastinal injuries included in this retrospective study.

The article discusses 2010 statistics related to U.S. gun violence according to U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) data. Several charts are presented including a one showing guns as the weapon of choice by men on nearly every type of victim, one comparing the number of people using a gun versus some other weapon, and one on the type of male ...

Forensic Science International, 1994
Suicidal gunshot wounds were reviewed for a 6 year and 6 month period with respect to age, sex, type of firearm, anatomical location of the entrance wound, alcohol use, location of the event and the presence of a suicide note. There was a total of 64 suicidal gunshot wounds, the majority of which were found in males.

The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 1980
Isolated gunshot wounds of the orbital contents are relatively rare, and therefore their management deserves updating in terms of current practices. Two cases of isolated gunshot wounds to the orbital contents are presented, and the diagnosis, management, and prognosis are reviewed.

Annals of Emergency Medicine, 1996
There is no serious argument about the wounding potential of various kinds of penetrating projectiles. The laws of physics in concert with modern bullet testing have clarified and quantified the mechanisms by which bullets disrupt tissue. Despite this scientific background, much misinformation persists in the wound-ballistics literature.

Gunshot Injuries of the Sacrum
The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 1996Gunshots to the sacrum are unusual and present several management problems. Associated injuries and particularly sacral bleeding are troublesome. Conventional methods of hemostasis are not suitable in this setting as the spinal blood supply is very complex because it is largely derived from the longitudinal spinal arteries originating intracranially ...

After experiencing a peak more than two decades ago, the incidence of gunshot injuries has recently stabilized1,2. Nevertheless, the effects of gunshot injuries to the spine and associated neurological sequelae continue to be substantial. In fact, approximately 14% of all civilian spinal cord injuries since 2010 are …
