“Missile Injuries of the Brain, Spine and Peripheral Nerves,” the book by Brigadier (Retired) Harjinder Singh Bhatoe, published by Thieme Medical Publishers in 2019, is a ready‑reference comprehensive book for neurosurgeons who may have to deal with gunshot or missile injuries.
Craniocerebral missile injuries carry very high mortality rates (75–80%) and most patients succumb even before they get examined by neurosurgeons. Literature and publications on gunshot and missile wounds of the brain and spine are scant.
