  • Title: Management of gunshot fractures of the extremities.
    Author: Hull JB.
    Journal: J Trauma; 1996 Mar; 40(3 Suppl):S193-7. PubMed ID: 8606409.
    Abstract:
    Extremity fractures resulting from gunshot trauma are frequently encountered by civilian as well as military surgeons. This paper highlights the relevant ballistic principles necessary to allow a sound appreciation of the degree of energy transfer in typical gunshot injuries that involve bone, and provides guidelines for the management of both low- and high-energy transfer wounds.
