My dumb ass thought he was wearing a blue hat in the first pic.

What is in the free space? Enough room for a soda can or his phone.

So we call surgical procedures deformities now?

Edit: whoever downvoted this is stupid as fuck and even less observant. It's a craniotomy. Look at the scar on the side of his fucking head you dumb shits.

I'm fairly sure this is not a 'a deformity'. This is the result of a craniectomy. A portion of the skull is removed to perform surgery and to reduce intracranial pressure due to swelling. Often the skull flap is actually placed into the abdomen of the patient until it can be put back. I am an Anesthetist who does a lot of neuro cases.

A shotgun under the chin that removes that much skull at the top head is either blowing off a good portion of the face with it or killing the victim... Or both. That definitely looks surgical.

  • I seem to remember seeing this individual on one of those 'you won't believe this shit' clickbait TV shows in the 90's or 00's.

  • As I recall it was a small gauge deer slug, like a .410 and while the brain damage was significant the individual did survive (obviously) and made a fairly decent recovery. As I recall the wound track was smaller than my thumb and travelled almost perfectly between the two frontal lobes.

  • But to respond to your observation the deformity is most likely caused by the surgical removal of the very badly damaged frontal bone. Most likely this was done to prevent infection or further complications from leaving the shattered bone in place.

That is insane. I was thinking maybe if it was a failed side of the head shot that could have happened. Crazy to think a shotgun slug could travel through that much brain and not kill a person.

Ah yes, the old "lil bit of heat and a plunger" method. Works on cars, why not people?

Bro, give me a couple suction cups and I could have done this for cheaper

There is an incision made in the abdomen and a pocket is made where the skull flap is inserted. Basically the skull sits under the skin. This keeps the bone in an environment that is isotonic and warm, plus the hospital cannot lose the bone.

The brain is surprisingly much smaller than the full shape of the head. There is a thick layer between the scalp and the skull, and the thickness of the bone itself. I definitely was shocked the first time I saw a patient with a craniectomy.
