Abstract
Facial injury as a result of an industrial accident from a stationary saw is rather uncommon; however, such an injury can result in significant damage to vital structures in the maxillofacial region and can even be life-threatening. Expeditious and prompt treatment at the time of such penetrating facial injury results in a favorable outcome. Appropriate care and proper treatment of a patient with penetrating facial injury includes immediate clinical assessment, diagnostic imaging, early wound exploration, removal of the foreign body, wound debridement, repair of hard and soft tissue, and adjunctive antimicrobial therapy.
