Abstract

The case history is presented of a 10-year-old boy who stabbed himself accidentally during play with a knife which penetrated deep into the temporal lobe of the brain via the orbit. The child was fully conscious on admission to hospital without any obvious neurological signs. The knife was removed surgically and the immediate postoperative findings of ptosis, chemosis and slight restriction of movement of the left eye regressed rapidly.
