dc.description.abstract	Many researchers classify perforating diametric craniocerebral gunshot wounds as fatal because mortality exceeds 96% and the majority of patients with such injuries die before hospitalization. A 23-year-old Ukrainian male soldier was admitted to a regional hospital with a severe perforating craniocerebral wound in a comatose state (Glasgow Coma Scale score, 5). Following brain helical computed tomography, the patient underwent primary treatment of the cerebral wound with primary duraplasty and inflow/outflow drainage. After 18 days of treatment in the intensive care unit, he was transferred to a military hospital for further rehabilitation. This report details our unusual case of successful treatment of a perforating diametric craniocerebral gunshot wound.	en
