Wide excision or fasciotomy may be required to clear foreign material and dead tissue. Primary suture is frequently delayed for high-velocity injuries, with grafting and suture at 3-5 days. Gunshot wounds are particularly prone to anaerobic infection, especially tetanus and gas gangrene.
- high velocity GSW need to be treated like open fractures; - generally requires formal operative debridement and fixation; - references: - Open wound drainage versus wound excision in treating the modern assault rifle wound.
A gunshot wound (GSW) is a penetrating injury caused by a projectile (e.g. a bullet) from a gun (typically firearm or air gun). Damages may include bleeding, bone fractures, organ damage, wound infection, loss of the ability to move part of the body and, in more severe cases, death.
