AbstractNasal foreign bodies are common in young children and are typically the result of intranasal placement by the child. The authors report a case of an extranasal foreign body in an adult, which presented as a nasal fracture following trauma to the nose. This uncommon presentation, previously unreported in the literature, highlights the importance of careful history taking in cases of nasal trauma and of thorough wound exploration if any penetrative injury is found.
