abstract="Suicidal stabbing to the back and buttocks is very unusual due to the limited accessibility of that region to the victim's hand. The following case report describes a 38-year-old man, known for depression and suicidal ideation, who was found deceased in his home after tearing his right internal iliac artery by stabbing himself through the buttock with a piece of glass from a broken beer bottle. The literature on suicidal stabbing, particularly focusing on the type of weapon and localisation of wounds, is reviewed.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
