...Both types of fragments went all through the right occipital lobe. There were clots, swelling of the brain in general, laceration of blood vessels. I removed multiple bullet and multiple bone fragments. I knew there was irritation of the center of the brain, the region of the brain stem. I couldn't see that bullet fragment, but I knew it was there from the X rays. Of course I had to leave...
...diagram), said Fournier, entered the top of Williams' skull, bounced off a bone near the pituitary gland and stopped in the temporal lobe of the brain. Another (No. 2) entered below the left eye and came to rest between the carotid artery and the jugular vein. One centimeter's deviation in almost any direction and this bullet could have caused fatal hemorrhaging. A third slug burrowed from the corner of the right eye into the jawbone. The fourth traveled from a point under the right nostril into the hard palate. The fifth bullet went through the roof...

The pedantic sadist is Colonel Sun of the People's Liberation Army of China, who wants to blow up some Russians and then blame the incident on the West. Bond...
Neurosurgeon Robert W. Rand, but is desirable in cases where ordinary EEGs, made with electrodes placed on the scalp, fail to show clearly the side of the brain in which the misfiring is more pronounced. The deeply implanted electrodes, penetrating the temporal lobe to reach the hippocampus* or even part of the cerebellum, sometimes reveal focal areas of electrical misfiring that surface EEGs have missed entirely. If there is misfiring on only one side, it can usually be detected readily, and relieved by surgical removal of the proper piece of brain tissue. If there is misfiring on both sides, surgeons...
...ranging from $5 to $25. And many parents give their consent for an operation only because they know that if a doctor does not do it, some school chum is ready and willing. All she needs is a fat sewing needle, a couple of ice cubes (for numbing the lobe), and some thick white thread to keep the breach open...
