Arterial embolism from a bullet: a case report.

Accounting for each wounding bullet represents an important part of the emergency room evaluation of gunshot victims. Physical examination must include a thorough search for exit wounds. Medical personnel must be aware of the possibility of intra-arterial passage of a wounding missile and routinely obtain appropriate roentgenagraphic studies so that patients with arterial bullet embolization will be identified preoperatively and can receive optimal surgical repair of their injuries.
