Abstract

Abstract Bull attacks are a common mode of injury in rural areas. It causes both blunt and penetrating trauma to the abdomen and chest. Blunt trauma to the abdomen may lead to hollow-viscous or solid organ injuries. Penetrating trauma can lead to rib injuries, hemothorax, mesenteric tears, gut perforation, etc. The majority of victims are men since they participate in hunting, spend more time outdoors, or take care of animals in open spaces. We report the successful management of a 56-year-old man who presented with penetrating trauma to the abdomen and right anterior chest wall due to a bull attack.
