TY - JOUR PY - 1976// TI - Arterial embolism from a bullet: a case report JO - American surgeon A1 - Prian, G. A1 - Aragon, G. E. SP - 863 EP - 865 VL - 42 IS - 11 N2 - Accounting for each wounding bullet represents an important part of the emergency room evaluation of gunshot victims. Physical examination must include a thorough search for exit wounds. Medical personnel must be aware of the possibility of intra-arterial passage of a wounding missile and routinely obtain appropriate roentgenagraphic studies so that patients with arterial bullet embolization will be identified preoperatively and can receive optimal surgical repair of their injuries.
