Abstract
Yabancı maddelerin insan vücudu içinde yer değiştirmesi nadir görülen bir durum olup, göç mekanizması hiçbir zaman tam olarak açıklanamamıştır. Kalça bölgesinden av tüfeği ile yaralanan hastanın kalbinde dört adet saçma tanesine rastlanması nedeniyle bu olgu rapor edilmeye değer bulunmuştur. Av tüfeğiyle yaralanma tanısıyla acil servise getirilen hastanın muayenesinde; gluteal bölgede çok sayıda saçma giriş deliği olduğu, göğüs ve sırt bölgelerinde herhangi bir yaralanma izi olmadığı tespit edildi. Çekilen radyografilerde; kalça ve uyluk bölgelerinde çok sayıda saçma tanesi mevcuttu. Rutin olarak çekilen akciğer grafisinde mediastende kalbe uyan bölgede, dört adet saçma tanesi izlendi ve bu nedenle oluşabilecek komplikasyonlar açısından takip edildi. Özellikle saçma ile olan ateşli silah yaralanmalarında, yaralanma bölgesi fark etmeksizin saçma tanelerinin yer değiştirebileceği göz önüne alınarak beklenmedik komplikasyonlarla karşılaşılabileceği göz önüne alınmalıdır.

Abstract
The replacement of foreign materials in the human body is rare and the exact mechanism of migration has never been entirely explained. This case was found worth reporting because of the pellets found in the heart of a patient injured by a shotgun through the hip region. The patient was brought to the emergency service because of a hunting rifle injury. Examination revealed numerous entry holes in the gluteal region but there was no sign of injury in the chest or back. On radiographs, there were numerous pellets in the hip and thigh regions. Routine chest X-ray showed four pellets within the mediastinum, probably within the heart, so patient was followed up to prevent probable complications. It should be considered that unexpected complications may be encountered in shotgun injuries due to migration of pellets regardless of the region of injury.
