This condition is unique and interesting for forensic medicine because none of the vital structures or major vessels were injured although the patient had a firearm injury to his head. In contrast to many other cases, the vital signs of our patient were normal and he was conscious on admission. Although the patient was considered lucky because he was still alive, he now had an unrecognizable face.",
