    Journal: Ann R Coll Surg Engl; 1983 Sep; 65(5):304-7. PubMed ID: 6614765.
    Abstract:
    A cardiac stab wound is an uncommon and potentially lethal injury. With appropriate treatment, better than 90% of those admitted alive will survive. This paper outlines the presentation and management of patients with cardiac stab wounds, based on the experience of the Glasgow Royal Infirmary and a review of the literature, illustrated by relevant case histories.
