    Author: Satyarthee GD, Borkar SA, Tripathi AK, Sharma BS.
    Journal: Neurol India; 2009; 57(3):331-3. PubMed ID: 19587478.
    Abstract:
    Penetrating cranial injury is a potentially life-threatening condition. The majority of war injuries are high-velocity penetrating cranial injuries; but in civilian cases, most penetrating cranial wounds are low-velocity type. We report an interesting case of transorbital penetrating cranial injury with a knife-sharpening stone made up of ceramic in a 28-year-old male. The pertinent literature is reviewed and management of such cases is discussed.
