Popis: Two years have passed since the worst firearms incident in recent British civil history. Most of the casualties were managed at a local district general hospital; this experience was reported soon afterwards. Two casualties were managed at Princess Alexandra's Hospital, RAF Wroughton; both are still under review. This paper describes their injuries, investigations and treatment. Current thoughts on optimal management are discussed; areas of particular controversy are highlighted. Language: en
