Breaking the rules: a thoracic impalement injury.

C L Foot1, P Naidoo.   

Abstract

In the case of a patient with an impalement injury, the object should be removed in a controlled operating theatre environment. We report an 18-year-old man for whom this rule could not be followed. He was removed from a metal pipe transfixing his chest at the roadside.
