    Journal: Orthop Rev; 1989 Apr; 18(4):453-7. PubMed ID: 2717208.
    Abstract:
    A 13-year-old girl suffered a single gunshot wound to the abdomen that resulted in multiple small bowel perforations and an incomplete neurologic injury involving her lower extremities. Physical exam failed to locate an exit wound. Radiographs revealed the bullet within the spinal canal at the thoracolumbar junction. It was subsequently removed on a non-urgent basis.
