Background Transorbital intracranial penetrating injury is rare. Damage caused by a huge metallic foreign body is very critical and life-threatening. Method We report an extremely rare case of transorbital intracranial penetrating metal strip (a car windshield wiper), which has not previously been reported in the literature. Results Emergency craniotomy was performed; the object was removed successfully, and the patient's life was saved. Conclusion With the life-threatening penetrating brain injury caused by a huge foreign body, prompt surgical treatment and comprehensive postoperative treatment are important to save patients' lives.

High Index Of Suspicion

Foreign body ingestion is a common occurrence in children and in specific high-risk  groups. It is usually diagnosed based on a history of ingestion given by the patient  or an observer. However, children and mentally retarded adults may be unable to  give an accurate history, and a high index of suspicion must be maintained in these  groups. We report a rare case of foreign body stone in an mentally retarded adult  which presented with drooling and impaired feeds, thence enabling for high index  for suspicion.  Health Renaissance 2014;12(2): pp: 140-142

A 54-year-old man complained of severe throat pain and showed subglottic oedema on fibre-optic endoscopy with a distinctly narrowed subglottic space on anteroposterior radiography of the neck and dense linear opacity at the level of the cricoid cartilage on lateral plain radiography. These findings suggested a foreign body just posterior to the cricopharyngeus, but a computed tomography (CT) scan demonstrated a dense calcified ridge on the posterior lamina of the cricoid cartilage but no foreign body.The patient improved symptomatically with systemic antibiotics and topical steroids, and gastrointestinal endoscopy did not detect any foreign body. This is a rare case of vertical ossification of the cricoid lamina masquerading as a foreign body.
