description The present case report is that of a 13-year-old boy, who was admitted to the Emergency Unit at the American University of Beirut Medical Center (AUBMC), with a bullet injury to the right upper quadrant with no exit. Chest X-ray and KUB failed to reveal the bullet and there was no evidence of haemo- or pneumothorax. X-ray of both thighs showed the bullet at the level of the right groin. The bullet penetrated the liver, diaphragm and pericardium. It entered through the left ventricle and embolised through the arterial circulation to the right superficial femoral artery. Included in this report is a review and analysis of patients with missile embolisation, who were treated at the AUBMC over the last 10 years.
