Penetrating gunshot wounds to the skull are one of the most frequent causes of head trauma in developing countries.Some intracraneal locations of projectiles don't allow it's extraction.The migration of the retained projectile can cause rare complications as neuroinfection, neurological focalization and epilepsy.We present the case of a patient with low-velocity firearm projectile injury, with artifact migration through the same cerebral hemisphere, resulting in campimetric compromise, requiring resection of the fragment with improvement of the visual deficit.
