摘要
A 32-year-old male sustained penetrating injury of the right shoulder with an angled iron rod in a road side accident. He presented with the rod in situ in his shoulder. Fortunately there was no neurovascular deficit. The metal rod was carefully removed with success, after cutting the rod with hacksaw to avoid neurovascular damage during removal.
