Transorbital penetrating cerebral injury with a ceramic stone: Report of an interesting case
Satyarthee, G. D.; Borkar, Sachin A.; Tripathi, Anuj Kumar & Sharma, B. S
Abstract
Penetrating cranial injury is a potentially life-threatening condition. The majority of war injuries are high-velocity penetrating cranial injuries; but in civilian cases, most penetrating cranial wounds are low-velocity type. We report an interesting case of transorbital penetrating cranial injury with a knife-sharpening stone made up of ceramic in a 28-year-old male. The pertinent literature is reviewed and management of such cases is discussed.
Keywords
