Description
Excerpt from Traumatic Injuries of the Brain, and Its Membranes: With a Special Study of Pistol-Shot Wounds of the Head, in Their Medico-Legal and Surgical Relations
The lesions which attend pistol-shot wounds of the head have been considered apart from general injuries, as a method more clearly presenting their distinctive character istics. Their complete history has necessitated an abstract of the results of aseries of cadaveric experiments, instituted to determine for legal purposes the extent to which the conditions under which they have been in?icted can be predicated from the appearances they present. These observations have been sufficiently extensive to better define not only the positive value, but the limitations, of medical evidence in such cases than has been heretofore possible.
