INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE: Penetrating perineal injury in children is uncommon. However, the injury is serious and life-threatening with significant morbidity and mortality.
CASE PRESENTATION: We report an unusual case of a 13-year-old boy with an accidental perineal impalement injury by an iron rod, which pierced through the perineum and exited through the left loin, however with minimal external and internal injuries.
CLINICAL DISCUSSION: Multiple vital organs in the pelvic space are vulnerable to damage in perineal impalement injury. Vital organ injury, amount of blood loss, and effectiveness of the resuscitation determine the outcome of an impalement injury. Urgent laparotomy forms the cornerstone in management as all the potential injuries can be identified and managed immediately.
CONCLUSION: Effective resuscitation and accurate assessment of the associated injuries along with proper pre-hospital care with a multidisciplinary approach is crucial for the survival and optimum outcome of the victim.
