Abstract

The rarity of bullet emboli leads to frequent delays in diagnosis and inadequate early management. A case report of a bullet entering the right ventricle and embolization to the right axillary artery is presented. Our recent experience with this entity is described, and 160 cases reported in the English literature are reviewed and summarized.
