Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Horner's syndrome is rare. A bullet wound in the neck is a rare cause of the syndrome, and it is exceedingly uncommon for a Horner's syndrome to be the sole noteworthy clinical result of a gunshot wound of this part of the anatomy. Two cases of bullet injury of the neck are described wherein a permanent Horner's syndrome was the only important sequel.
