“…Bedry R et al reported in their study that even with a large number of bullets in the body, the blood lead level increases to low values without causing any clinical sign, except in exceptional circumstances [ 8 ]. Thus, in our case, given that our patient did not present any clinical symptoms of lead poisoning despite the fact that the trauma was two years old, we did not find it necessary to perform a blood lead level test and no chelation was performed.…”

Injuries by ballistic projectiles concern nowadays more and more frequently civilian populations. If the vital prognosis is rarely put at risk, the functional after-effects are frequent and important. The management of these injuries follows specific rules that must be known because they are sometimes different from the usual traumatology. However, it is important for any surgeon to understand the basic principles of ballistic injury. Indeed, the knowledge of the trajectory of the bullet and its final location allows to consider the potential injuries and to evaluate the management of the patient. CT is the examination of choice for penetrating foreign bodies, allowing for viewing of the entry site, bullet trajectory, possible scattered fragments, and, most importantly, a possible skull base breach, as well as providing useful information for planning the surgical procedure and, generally, for prognosis. The primary surgery must ensure an early and rigorous trimming associated with antibiotic therapy because the quality of the initial trimming significantly influences the final result, so this approach to the removal of the foreign body depends on its size, its anatomical location, the structures involved and the preference of the surgeon.
