Impalement injuries to the craniofacial region are uncommon due to the fact that the face is a smaller target in relation to the rest of the body. We report a case of a 26-year old man who was attacked on the face with a spear. He was promptly evaluated and resuscitated; the blade of the spear was successfully extracted under general anaesthesia. He was discharged home after 2 weeks hospitalization; he has been followed up for three months with good outcome.
由于相对于身体其他部位而言,面部是较小的目标,所以颅面部穿刺伤并不常见。我们报告一例26岁男性被长矛袭击面部的病例。他立即接受了评估和复苏;在全身麻醉下成功取出了长矛的刀片。住院2周后他出院回家;已对他进行了3个月的随访,结果良好。
