Abstract
In general, because hypertension is an important risk factor for cardiovascular disorders blood pressure should be adequately controlled. However, paradoxically, untreated hypertension revealed unexpected result in a patient of gunshot wound. A pellet embedded in the left ventricular myocardium did not cause to deteriorate any clinical course and after 1 week, any change in location of the pellet was not noticed on follow-up echocardiography. Herein we report a patient with a retained pellet in the heart who was discharged from hospital without operative therapy.
