ABSTRACT
Migration of a bullet to a distant part of the body after a gunshot is rarely observed in the clinical setting, and migration to the heart is even rarer. There are usually no clear symptoms or signs from migration of a bullet. The bullet can be easily missed and sometimes identified in a review examination. A case of bullet migration to the heart 2 months after a gunshot to the left knee was reported.
