Abstract:
Both thigns of the dogs were injured with 5.56mm M193 Bullets. The effects of the temporary cavity of high velocity missiles on the femoral arteries were studied. The displacement of the femoral artery was proportional to the size of the temporary cavity. The partial endothelial injury, Ices of intima, rupture of internal elastic membrane and thrombi were observed in the femoral arteries within 4 cm of residual track. The injuries in the leg with an exit wound were more severe than that in the leg with an entrance wound, the incidence of thrombosis in 24 and 172 hour groups was higher than in 6 hour group.
