Abstract：Non-lethal kinetic bullet(NLKB)is widely used and can cause various injuries.In this article,the development stages and main types of NLKB worldwide were first introduced in brief.Then,the injuries caused by NLKB in different countries and regions were analyzed from the aspects of weapon structure and human body ana-tomic features.In the end,cases of NLKB injuries to different body parts like skin,head,eyeballs,neck,chest,abdo-men,limbs,and testes were shared.It is hoped that this review will provide research references for NLKB develop-ment and application;moreover,promote understanding of the mechanisms,types,severity,and prognosis of injuries caused by NLKB to the human body.
