Abstract
GCS score on admission, and the extent of brain injury as visualized by CT scan, seem to be the 2 most significant predictors of outcome in cranio-cerebral gunshot wounds. Patients with a GCS score of more than 8, or brain lesions limited to a single lobe of the brain, may benefit from aggressive management.
