   Apr 7, 2017 · Primary wound closure is counterproductive—open treatment is the method of choice for gunshot and blast injuries of the extremities, including re-evaluation. Following surgical revision, temporary wound coverings can be applied, e.g., negative-pressure wound therapy dressings or topical antiseptic wound gels.

   Apr 17, 2023 · Gunshot wounds are complex, violent, traumatic injuries commonly encountered in forensic practice. These injuries are caused by penetration of the body with projectiles ejected from a barrel due to the ignition of gunpowder. The study of these injuries is also called wound ballistics.

   Jan 1, 2014 · Increased tissue damage can result from tumbling of non-deforming rifle bullets and deformation of expanding bullets. Both of these mechanisms increase substantially the energy transfer to the wound and its diameter, also producing a pulsating temporary cavity associated with pressure changes within tissue.

   What is a gunshot wound?

   • Gunshot wounds typically consist of the permanent tract or cavity, surrounded by a perimeter of abraded tissue called the abrasion rim. The wound also contains a grease collar, resulting from the accumulation of lubricant on the tissue during penetration by the projectile.

   What are the secondary effects of a gunshot wound?

   • The secondary effects in a gunshot wound are more severe due to a phenomenon known as temporary cavitation. These temporary forces include radial acceleration, shear, stretch, and compression and result in disruption of the tissue away from the main injury tract. They are more extensive in solid, uncompressible organs. Entry and Exit Wound
