Abstract
Introduction: Fishing can be problematic for the novice fisherman when the fishing hook sinks into the fisherman�s body. The hook can often not be removed easily because of its specific structure. Case report: A 12-year-old boy had a fishing hook sunk into his nose after it was thrown towards his face; it inserted into the septum and right lower lateral cartilage of the nose due to inexperience in handling it by the victim. Discussion: The hook was extracted through the �push through and cut off� method with no damage caused to the lower lateral cartilage, septum and the nasal skin. Deep insertion of the hook in the sensitive areas such cartilage of the nose can cause an irreversible complication if erroneously manipulated. Conclusion: This is the first report of technique of removed fishing hook with extra teeth from the nasal cartilage. Surgeon knowledge about the hook type and techniques of hook removal can help successful removal from the body without irreversible complication. © The Author(s) 2022.
