Firearm wounds to the head are often fatal and are routinely encountered in the practice of forensic medicine. Herein we presented a patient who was wounded with a military rifle. This condition is unique and interesting for forensic medicine because none of the vital structures or major vessels were injured although the patient had a firearm injury to his head. In contrast to many other cases, the vital signs of our patient were normal and he was conscious on admission. Although the patient was considered lucky because he was still alive, he now had an unrecognizable face.
头部火器伤通常是致命的，在法医学实践中经常遇到。在此，我们介绍一位被军用步枪击伤的患者。这种情况在法医学上是独特且有趣的，因为尽管患者头部有火器伤，但重要结构和主要血管均未受伤。与许多其他案例不同，我们这位患者的生命体征正常，入院时意识清醒。尽管该患者还活着，被认为很幸运，但他现在面部已无法辨认。
