Endoscopy Assisted Removal of Post Traumatic Impacted Foreign Body in the Nose Extending into Opposite Parapharyngeal Space.
The head and neck region is a complex anatomical area with vulnerable nervous and vascular structures, auditory and visual organs and upper aero-digestive tract. Penetrating foreign bodies of head and neck region are not uncommon and pertain mostly to wood, metal and glass (Levine et al. in Am J Emerg Med 26:918-922, 2008). This case report describes an airborne high velocity foreign body blown off from a lawn mower penetrating the left side of the face, penetrating deep into nasopharynx and opposite parapharyngeal space through paranasal sinuses. A multidisciplinary team managed this case successfully, avoiding injuries to adjacent vital skull base structures.
