Abstract
Marine-related injuries and envenomations are common to the coastal physician. Needlefish injuries, which occur almost exclusively in the Indo-Pacific region, have not previously been reported along the Atlantic seaboard. This case report describes a penetrating injury to the lower extremity from a needlefish. Treatment is guided by general resuscitative procedures as well as antibiotic therapy directed against infections unique to the marine environment.
