ABSTRACT
We reported a case of a work-related accident involving periorbital and intraorbital metal foreign bodies. The patient was a 43-year-old woman whose nasal dorsum was struck while she was sawing wood with nails. X-ray plain films of skull bone and computed tomographic scan of nasal sinus revealed two 5-mm-long metal objects lodged in right lacrimal sac and medial bulbar space of the right orbit. No deficits were noted in her visual acuities, visual fields, and ocular movements. Based on accurate positioning by imaging examination, transnasal endoscopic removal of metal foreign bodies was successfully accomplished. The patient recovered well without any complications after surgery.
