AbstractDEVELOPMENT OF FIREARMS in the 16 century produced profound changes in the art of warfare and raised new problems for the physician-surgeons. Old assumptions and wrong interpretations delayed the rational approach to the head injuries inflicted by missiles. Evolution of thought and increased experience over the century ultimately led to a surgical practice that can be regarded as the best possible solution allowed by contemporary knowledge and technology.
