Abstract
Orbitocranial penetrating injuries (OCPI) caused by wooden foreign bodies are very rare and life-threatening. They might pose unusual diagnostic and surgical challenges. Swift identification through appropriate imaging techniques and prompt extraction are imperative. We herein present the case of a young girl who has experienced an orbitocranial injury caused by a wooden foreign body (WFB) due to striking the tree branches while playing. She underwent exploration, and the foreign body was removed through the entry wound with an intracranial microscopic control through a modified orbito-zygomatic approach. This case describes the clinical manifestation, radiographic features, and treatment of this rare trauma, with an emphasis on imaging diagnosis and multi-disciplinary management.
