Myocardial tissue embolism due to gunshot wound is a very rare event, as only a few cases of myocardial tissue embolization, occurring after cardiac surgery or myocardial infarction, have been reported. According to this study's referenced report from forensic autopsy, one case of myocardial tissue emboli to the lung has been found, in an Asian male, 22 years old, who died from a gunshot to the chest by a handgun. From the examination, myocardial tissue embolism was considered important forensic evidence, showing that the gunshot occurred while the victim was still alive, and that he also survived for some period of time after being shot.
心肌组织栓塞由枪击伤引起是一种非常罕见的事件，因为只有少数几例心肌组织栓塞的病例被报道，这些病例发生在心脏手术后或心肌梗死之后。根据这项研究中法医解剖的参考文献报告，在一名 22 岁的亚洲男性中发现了一例肺中的心肌组织栓塞，该男性胸部被手枪枪击。从检查结果来看，心肌组织栓塞被认为是重要的法医学证据，表明枪击发生时受害者仍活着，并且在被枪击后还存活了一段时间。
