case_images: Chest radiography showed a solid fragment lodged in the heart projection (Figure 1A), and computed tomography showed possible heart damage due to myocardial tapering in ventricular apex (Figure 1B) and presence of a small volume pneumoperitoneum. According to computed tomography images and reconstruction of the trajectory, the shrapnel transfixed the ventricular apex and lodged itself in the lower lobe of the left lung (Figure 1C and D).

  Threedimensional view of the chest and heart. C and D: pledgets used in wound
  repair in the myocardial apex (arrows)

case_images: At follow-up, routine exams showed no changes: echocardiography with preserved ventricular function, normal left ventricular segmental contractility, heart valves with good opening and mobility, atrial and ventricular septal integrity, and an ejection fraction of 66%; ergometric test without evidence of ischemia; and chest CT angiography with only remnants of a repaired myocardial injury (Figure 2).
