SP - 409 EP - 412 VL - 176 IS - 3 N2 - In a case of attempted suicide a frontotransversal gunshot through both orbits led to symmetrical destruction of the bulbs and orbits. Examination revealed a rupture of both bulbs, fractures of the orbital roofs and floors, and destruction of the os ethmoidale. In the frontal cortex we found focal contusions. The physical effect of the gunshot on one hand, and the special anatomical relations of the orbit on the other, explain the serious consequences of orbital gunshot damages.
