The patient was admitted comatose, with right hemiplegia. The blade of the axe was embedded deeply into his head. A craniectomy was carried out around the axe blade and it was removed easily. The cerebral wound was 6 cm long in horizontal plane and about 7 cm deep. Significant amount of contused and necrotic brain tissue was aspirated.
