Penetrating Nail Gun Injury to the Abdomen

Injuries associated with the use of compression guns vary widely in site and severity [1]. The injuries caused by these devices can be devastating due to the great force they can deploy [2]. Most injuries are self-inflicted and the majority of cases occur accidently but suicides and suicide attempts using nail guns have been reported [3]. We describe the case of a 32-years-old male tradesperson who suffered a penetrating nail gun injury to the abdomen, a CT scan revealed that the nail landed in the left thoraco-abdominal region, a few millimeters distant from the stomach, we opted for a conservative procedure by local extraction of the foreign body and the patient was discharged at the third day after uneventful postoperative monitoring.
