متن کاملBullet embolism to the pulmonary artery.
Bullet embolization of the pulmonary artery is a very rare event.

The vertebral arteries branch off the subclavian arteries, passing cephalad through the costotransverse foramina of the sixth to second cervical vertebrae. They enter the skull through the foramen magnum merging at the pontomedullary junction to form the basilar artery which divides into two posterior cerebral arteries at the upper pons. At the base of the brain the carotid and basilar systems ...
