Abstract
There are innumerable circumstances when a firearm injury has been presented in different forms. Some injuries are considered to be clean, where as others are twisty and bizarre in presentation. Examples may be quoted as ricocheting of bullet, single entry wound and multiple exit wounds, single entry wound but no exit wound presumably bullet vanishing suddenly. The present case report deals with the case in which the bullet has struck the shin of right lower extremity causing fracture and bending of bullet at the level of its neck.
