The rare case of a large wooden foreign body impaled in the cranio-orbital region, and its late diagnosis and successful removal, is presented. A 26-year-old man was admitted to a regional hospital after suffering a severe penetrating craniocerebral injury from a motorcycle accident. Two months after the accident, computed tomographic examination at Burdenko Neurosurgical Institute revealed a large foreign body located in the cranio-orbital region and penetrating the right temporal lobe, with surrounding abscess development. Radiological examination, including three-dimensional computed tomography, enables one to choose the optimal surgical approach and to remove the foreign body, thereby avoiding purulent, inflammatory complications. |
