B B Shehu,I Hassan,

A 38-year-old woman presented after 2 weeks with penetrating craniocerebral injury from a six inch nail. She had aphasia and right hemiplegia. Brain CT scan showed no significant cerebral injury. The nail track was infected. Craniectomy and extraction of the nail along with broad spectrum antibiotics was effective. She had no residual neurologic deficit.
