Giriş: Beş yaşından küçük çocuklarda orofarengeal penetran
travmalar, kendilerini korumada yetersiz olmaları nedeni ile daha
sıklıkla rastlanmaktadır.
Olgu Sunumu: Bu yazıda, inşaat çivisinin üzerine düşme sonrası
orofarengeal penetran travmalı 2 yaşındaki kız hasta sunuldu.
Hastaya yapılan fizik muayene, çekilen radyolojik incelemeler
sonunda yabancı cismin yumuşak ve sert damak bileşkesinden
ilerleyip nazofarenksten geçerek kafa tabanında klivusa dayandığı
görüldü. Ek klinik görüşler sonrası operasyona alınan hastada
postoperatif dönemde herhangi bir nörolojik veya vizuel aktivite
eksikliği izlenmedi. Takiplerinde komplikasyon gelişmeyen hasta
önerilerle taburcu edildi.
Sonuç: Orofarengeal penetran travmalarda hayati organlara olan
komşuluk nedeni ile mortalite ve morbidite açısından dikkatli
olunmalıdır.

Öz

Introduction: Oropharyngeal penetrating trauma is encountered more often in children under the age of 5 due to lack of their selfprotection.Case Report: In this paper, a 2-year-old girl who had penetrating oropharyngeal trauma after falling on a construction nail was presented. As a consequence of the physical examination and radiological examination applied to the patient, it was seen that the foreign body reached the clivus in the base of the skull, through the nasopharynx, passing by the hard and soft palate junction. In the status of the patient, who was operated on, no additional clinical aspects or neurological or lack of visual activity was observed in the post-operative period. As there was no complication during the follow-ups, the patient was discharged with recommendations.Conclusion: Oropharyngeal penetrating trauma should be careful in terms of mortality and morbidity due to the proximity to vital organs
