  • Title: Some missile injuries due to civil unrest in Northern Ireland.
    Author: Whitlock RI, Gorman JM.
    Journal: Int J Oral Surg; 1978 Aug; 7(4):240-5. PubMed ID: 100431.
    Abstract:
    Some missile injuries are reviewed after nearly 8 years of continuous warfare. A feature of many of these injuries is the early admission to hospital which has had a profound effect on the survival rate and the recovery period. Some examples are given of injuries inflicted by rubber bullets. The effects of wounding by low and high velocity missiles are described and examples given. An injury caused by a missile incorporated in a bomb is also shown.
