Penetrating head injuries can be the result of numerous intentional or unintentional events, including missile wounds, stab wounds, and motor vehicle or occupational accidents (nails, screw-drivers). Penetrating head injuries in children constitute even a smaller part of the total number of traumatic head injuries seen in casualty. We report a case of neuro-trauma who was operated in our institution. A 6-year-old female presented in casualty with an iron rod penetrating into the skull.
