Аннотация
PURPOSE: Penetrating spinal injuries are generally extremely rare and are seldom encountered in pediatric patients. The non-compliance of pediatric patients with physical examination can sometimes delay diagnosis and treatment. Here, we present a case of a child who had a fall and suffered penetrating spinal trauma due to a small glass fragment.
CASE REPORT: A penetrating foreign body was detected in the lumbar spinal region of a 2-year-old patient with complaints of increased restlessness on physical activity followed by difficulty in walking. The patient was operated on and followed up without any complications in the perioperative and late postoperative periods.
CONCLUSION: A detailed physical examination is necessitated in the pediatric age group because of insufficient anamnesis. The high number of patients per physician, especially in societies having a low socioeconomic standard, prevents detailed examinations, and unnecessary examinations may cause delays in diagnosis. However, one must note that the skin findings of pediatric patients can be very helpful, especially in pediatric neurosurgery, and examination should not be neglected.
