Abstract

This paper reports the effects on 22 victims of a bomb containing ball-bearings. Of five patients requiring admission to hospital three had sustained injuries due specifically to ball-bearings. The mechanism of the weapon, and the nature of the injuries are described. The particular type of wounds sustained, their presentation and management are discussed.
