Abstract

Gunshot wounds (GSWs) pose significant medicolegal and forensic issues. Mistakes have been made regarding identification of gunshot wounds. We present a case of an atypical gunshot wound and review contact, near contact, intermediate, and distant wounds. There is an objective terminology to describe GSWs in the Emergency Department.
