Contact wound of the right temple with evisceration of the brain. Note soot at the entrance site. In the typical contact wound of the head, the entrance site is easy to locate, as large quantities of soot will be found at it. The edges of the wound will be seared and blackened. The entrance is often bisected by large lacerations extending across the top of the head. Fragmentation of the skull usually occurs. The exit site of the pellets may not be found because of missing fragments of bone and scalp, the massive comminuted fractures of the skull, and extensive lacerations of the scalp.
