Penetrating knife blade injuries to the maxillofacial region are quite rare, with retained knife blades even rarer. Associated vascular, ocular, ductal, neurosurgical injuries should be identified and treated accordingly. Appropriate special investigations included plain radiographs and angiograms, which were used in establishing the proximity of the foreign object to the arterial supply to the head and neck. The impacted blade should be removed in theatre. Ten patients with this injury are discussed.
穿透性刀片致颌面区域损伤相当罕见,刀片残留则更为罕见。应识别并相应处理相关的血管、眼部、导管、神经外科损伤。适当的特殊检查包括X线平片和血管造影,用于确定异物与头颈部动脉供应的接近程度。嵌入的刀片应在手术室取出。本文讨论了10例此类损伤患者。
