A quite rare case of bruising abrasion-like as gun entry wound.

Carlos Chérrez Bermejo1, Rafael Teijeira Álvarez2.   

Abstract

An interesting case of a suicide by a home made gun is described. A review of the literature is added. The entry wound is exceptional. The case shows that the forensic assessment of a home made gun case may be very difficult and implies to evaluate all the circumstances related to it. Specific forensic signs of home made gun injuries are suggested.
