RESUMO
Os traumatismos por projétil de arma de fogo são frequentes na prática bucomaxilofacial. As lesões causadas por esses projéteis e fragmentos constituem um desafio ao cirurgião, resultando em consequências estéticas e funcionais devastadoras. A atenção e a conduta terapêutica precisa visam à diminuição de complicações e sequelas. Vários fatores influenciam neste tipo de ferimento, tornando complexo o tratamento inicial e o definitivo pela imprevisibilidade desses. O objetivo deste trabalho é apresentar os aspectos técnicos do tratamento, através de uma revisão de literatura, bem como relatar um caso de trauma de face causado por projétil de arma de fogo, propondo a necessidade de um protocolo de atendimento baseado num maior conhecimento balístico e fisiopatológico objetivando diminuir a morbimortalidade.
ABSTRACT
Injuries caused by firearms projectiles are common in maxillofacial practice. These injuries constitute a challenge to the surgeon because they may have aesthetic and functional devastating consequences. Attention and precise therapy aim at reducing complications and sequelae. Several factors influence this type of injury, making complex initial care and definitive treatment more complex due to their unpredictability. The aim of this work was to present the technical aspects involved in the treatment, through a literature review and report the case of a patient with facial trauma caused by a firearm projectile; and suggests that a service protocol based on greater knowledge about ballistic pathophysiology is required in order to decrease the morbidity and mortality of this type of trauma.
