Through‐and‐through gunshot wound to the head in a rare case of survival

Abstract

Abstract We describe the case of a 42‐year old Caucasian male who presented for follow‐up treatment of refractory epilepsy. He suffered a cranial trauma 13 years before when a bullet from a pistol, (presumably accidentally) entered the right frontal side of the cranial vault and exited contralateral, causing severe neurological damage.
