Shotguns are usually used to fire multiple pellets, but they are capable of firing single projectiles. Shotgun slug injuries are rare, severe, and fully comparable to those inflicted by high-velocity projectiles. A case of gunshot suicide of a 59-year-old man with a shotgun loaded with shotgun slugs is presented. The first two shots were fired into the heart region, but did not hit the vital organs of the victim's thorax and did not cause immediate incapacitation. The man was able to reload and refire. The third shot was fired into the region of right temple; the last shot caused severe cerebrocranial gunshot injury and was fatal. The victim did not pull aside his clothing to expose his skin before shooting into the heart region.
霰弹枪通常用于发射多发弹丸，但也可以发射单发弹丸。霰弹枪弹丸造成的损伤较为罕见且严重，与高速弹丸造成的损伤相当。本文报道了 1 例 59 岁男子使用装有霰弹枪弹丸的霰弹枪自杀的案例。该男子首先向心脏区域开了两枪，但未命中受害者胸部的重要器官，也未使其立即丧失行动能力。该男子能够重新装弹并再次射击。第三枪射向右太阳穴区域；最后一枪造成严重的颅脑枪伤，导致死亡。受害者在向心脏区域开枪前没有将衣服拉到一边露出皮肤。
