Penetrating injury of superior sagittal sinus (SSS) is very rare yet serious which can lead to morbidity and mortality. Complications such as bleeding, thrombosis, and infection are possible and should be anticipated. We report a case of 3-year-old boy with penetrating injury caused by a nail at the middle third of SSS. The patient underwent the surgery for extraction and sinus repair and antibiotic treatment during the hospital stay. He was neurologically intact and recovered completely. Comprehensive treatment of both surgical and medical management is important in achieving the best possible outcome.
上矢状窦(SSS)穿透伤极为罕见但后果严重,可导致发病和死亡。出血、血栓形成及感染等并发症都有可能发生,应予以预见。我们报告一例3岁男孩,其因钉子导致上矢状窦中三分之一处穿透伤。患者在住院期间接受了取出钉子及窦修复手术并接受了抗生素治疗。他神经功能完好,已完全康复。手术和药物综合治疗对于取得最佳治疗效果至关重要。
