4) although this situation is safer than the others, the presence of lead deposits anywhere can cause raised lead levels, particularly if the granuloma around the fragment is later disturbed (e.g. by trauma) or migrates to a higher risk area; therefore 5) any lead in the body is potentially an issue

1) lots of fluid moving over the fragment promoting dissolution 2) lots of bone turnover; as a large 2+ ion, lead looks similar to calcium to a lot of body processes 3) many small fragments have a higher surface area than one larger piece
